Sorting marriages/children

Sorting marriages/children of a single person

On the index card, you can edit both the marriages and the children and sort them chronologically.

Sort marriages/children of all persons in one directory

The context menu of a person directory contains the "Sort..." function with its submenu items, allowing you to sort marriages, children, or both for all persons in that directory. This is useful, for example, to put marriages and/or children into chronological order after a GEDCOM import , as the GEDCOM format does not offer a way to transfer the order of marriages and children in a predefined manner.

Once the sorting process is complete, a log will be displayed listing all individuals whose marriage and/or child order was changed as a result of the sorting. You can save the log to review the changes later (it can be found in the document manager ).

The "Test Run" submenu item allows you to perform a sorting run without saving any potential changes to the people. This way, you can check the sort order of people you've entered yourself or imported without actually performing the sorting.
