When I add a son or daughter I need to manually fill his or her last names (father last name and mother last name).
Is it possible to configure that in an automatic way?

if you select the family line and you make clic on the upperr icon, (or with the contextual menu or with the "F") you will open the "family wizard"

on this window you can easily say what ist the last name of all the children



note: it works with one last name, but not for two

In most genealogy software (Family Tree Maker, Gramps, Legacy, etc.), when adding children, the system does not automatically fill in the surname according to the father or mother, because surname selection depends on customs, culture, and personal choice. Therefore, you have to enter it manually by default.
