Hello everyone,
I need to do my genogram for my university, and I am enjoying it after overcoming many obstacles, including that I am a MAC user and had to borrow a Windows computer, which is almost alien to me. I can't figure how to right click on the laptop to get the extra set of options. I have tried both buttons on the mouse pad, but they seem not to be working, and I don't have an external mouse. I s there an alternative way to the right click through the menu? I'd like to make a household, and print the legend. Thank you ever so much for any help, Paula

Hi Paula,
Most laptops have a dedicated 'context menu' key, normally between the right hand Alt (gr) and Ctrl keys.
'lego audio video erro ergo disco' or "I read, I listen, I watch, I make mistakes, therefore I learn"

Have not used a Mac but if you can not get the mouse to work there are two alternatives.
Keyboard shortcuts are introduced when you open a new file, but disappear as soon as you add any thing. So:-
F for family wizard
P to add parents to an individual
S or D for children of selected parent, or C for child
You can add a second mate with M, or use the family wizard
W inserts a new male
E inserts new female (not sure why these letters, probably lack of option)
X marks an individual as dead
Press Enter when an individual is selected to open the Properties menu
Most of these options are also available from icons in the menu bar

Thank you, genome! I will try this next time I turn the Windows on!
appleshaw, I have managed those basic features already (I am using Windows for this project by the way, but I don't know very well how to operate the computer). I was asking about the special choices available when you right click on an individual, such as in the image below:  I would think they would also be available through a menu or shortcut. Thank you again, both!
