Have been approached by several family members about the symbols used within Genopro.

Main point was the use of a cross for the D. above the gender symbol for a person whose dod is known but nothing else.

Are there any standards world wide? Above sample is from WIKIPEDIA.

No, it is a bug.  I thought it was resolved a while ago.  I cannot reproduce it on my machine, however if you can send me a sample file, I will investigate again.

a cross is unacceptable as a general symbol because of its religious connotations.

I may have expressed myself not correctly. Now it is a "D.", but requested was a "cross", so no bug.
But I do understand the religious connotations.
