Forum Newbie Customers GenoPro version: 2.0.1.6 Last Login: Monday, August 16, 2010 Posts: 7, Visits: 15	I'm trying to setup my family tree in GenoPro in a certain way and can't see how to do it. Perhaps you could tell me how to achieve it or, if it's not possible, you could add the functionality... I have a family tree with a dozen or so people 'below' my parents (i.e. their children, grandchildren, 'son in-laws' etc). Above each parent, their half of the tree extends upward and outward. Up until now, I've displayed all people on one GenoMap but I'm reaching the point where I want to split parts of the tree off onto separate GenoMaps. I've looked into the 'Help' and discovered the method of moving a branch of a tree to a separate GenoMap while keeping a hyperlink between them. However, that wouldn't allow me to do the following. I want two GenoMaps, one with my Father's side of the family plus his descendents and a second GenoMap with my Mother's side of the family and her descendents i.e. my parents and their descendents would be duplicated in both GenoMaps. I could do this easily by cutting and pasting one half of the tree to a new GenoMap BUT (and this is the important bit), I would have to maintain the duplicated part (i.e. make any future changes) in two GenoMaps. I would want both copies of my parents and their descendents (i.e. the duplicated people) to be updated when I edit them in either GenoMap. So, if I change a detail in one instance of, say, my Dad, the same update will be seen in the second GenoMap. Also, if I add a new descendent to that duplicated branch, I'd want the new addition to appear on the other GenoMap automatically. I'm hoping you're going to say this is already possible and tell me how (or point me in the right direction in the Help file) but if not, please consider adding the functionality as I think it would be extremely useful and popular.
