A revised Narrative Report skin is attached. To use unzip it to a new folder under your GenoPro skins folder and select it when running 'Generate Report'.

The major change here is rationalising the configuration parameter handling. Configuration parameter descriptions have been moved from Dictionary.xml to Config.xml, as per the Descendants report. Additional information for some parameters is also available as a 'tooltip' on the Config settings form, taken from a new 'Desc' attribute for each parameter. The move to Config.xml should mean that the two Dictionary.xml files are interchangeable (for the same release level).

Other changes are:

  1. a fix for the double window for any individual external hyperlink, reported elsewhere.
  2. a <?url?> custom markup instruction as suggested by BobWebster
  3. a <?plain?> custom markup instruction for text that is only for the non-html report(s).
  4. gender param for education termination. possible to translate education achievement passed/failed.
  5. maybe others!

To Ron:
A couple of slight corrections:

1) in Dic, <PhBloodTypeTxt>:  1st curly bracket to be removed after T="
2) in Util.vbs, <PhTL_Birth & _Died>: strGender should also be added at the end of the param lists in lines 968 & 973 as I got this error message:

3) the lookup (for places & occupations) in NameDic doesn't seem to work.
Thank you,
JC

Thanks JC I've made the corrections in the attached revision. NameDictionary seems to be OK for me. By default the (empty) NameDictionary in the skin is used, but you can use config params to point it elsewhere.

Also I got a bit tired of answering the 'View/Amend config params' prompt, so I have added something so that a Document Custom Tag named ChangeParameters can be used to control it. Set to 'Y' to cause the change params dialog to always appear without prompting, set to 'N' to stop the prompt (and dialog) from appearing. By default if this custom tag is not set then behaviour is unchanged.

To Ron:
Whenever you have spare time, here are 2 suggestions:
1) I previously suggested to support DualLang 'Url' fields.
I added in lang.vbs line 1476, 'StrFormatText' for 's.Url':
...FormatHtmlHyperlink(StrFormatText(s, s.Url), StrFormatText(s, s.Url), "target=...
I don't know if both places are necessary or if strParseText() is better. To be checked, if you want to implement this feature.
2) In the middle of my tree Doc general description (the main page of my Rep), I wrote my email ad. For a long time, I wanted this ad to be auto-hyperlinked to, in my case, MS Outlook Express.
I then dig myself a bit more into the function StrFormatText() provided in Util.vbs and added in line 1106 (after case "url") a case "email/mail":
 Case "email", "mail"
  strParams(0) = Mid(strSubParts(0), InStr(strSubParts(0), " ")+1)
  strResult = strResult & "<a href=""mailto:" & strParams(0) & """>" & strParams(0) & "</a>" & Util.HtmlEncode(strSubParts(1))

The result looks fine but again to be checked for optimization and coding potential bug.
Thank you Ron,
JC

Have now managed to finish the next revision so 2.0.1.5RC3 is attached. It contains the enhancements and corrections suggested by JC is this thread. Also ordering of dual/mullti/ language fields to put skin language first.

Also added narrative for grandparents whre mother/father was adopted and Extant custon tag for relationships to allow past tense when individuals still alive. Set Extant to N if relationsips is no longer current.

Update: 2008/03/18:  see later post in this tread for an updated skin.

To Ron:

I tried to understand your new <PhGrandParentsAdopted> Ph and drawn up this tree, having made Francine adopted by Pierre & Marie:

I then 'made label/excluded from Report' the grand-father Pierre and got this:

Oops, gender problem.

Update: I also noticed this with param <LangShowOthers> = "Y":

Thanks Ron,
JC

Hi Ron,

ran Narrative Report revision 2.0.1.5RC3 and received following error..

Could it b that you have managed to pick up an old report skin? I can't find b.PregnancyLength.Month anywhere and not on line 124 of Lang.vbs. It was changed some time ago to PregnancyLength.Months

Thanks JC. There was a problem with 'single parent' adopters that I have now fixed in the attached, also dual lang. city/state/country etc.

Sorry Ron,  I am getting clumsy and should know better after all this time.   I used an old skin directory without deleting the existing contents first. Lesson learnt, thanks.
