That's great Mick, I'm pleased we got that sorted at long last. Let's hope the same solution works for others.

A message to Dan & Jean-Claude at GenoPro:

Search this forum for advice about printing to a pdf printer.
You need to know the paper size of the printer you will use A3, A2 or whatever. You will need to install a new printer device such as novaPDF, PrimoPDF or Cute pdf. These are free programs to produce the file for your USB stick. If you install them and open the Properties you can predefine your page size.
Then set Genopro to print on one page (from Page Setup) and use Print setup to select you new printer. Then preview from the main View menu will show how the printing area will look - as will print preview - in case you want to re-arrange.
When you print the document you wil be asked to select a file name. Here you can direct the output to your stick

Hi,

I'm using the XML Toolkit to add birth and death information. The "Year & place of birth/baptism (b./bpt. yyy x..x)" and "Year & place of death/burial (d./bur. yyyy x..x)" custom field line show empty "bpt." and "bur." lines when no information is available. How can I remove the line entirely when no information is available? Is there documentation available on the IndividualCustomTag template syntax in Dictionary.xml?

Also, the AutoArrange tool in GenoPro doesn't recognize the labels XML Toolkit added, so they overlap. Can it be poked into spacing them out correctly?

I attached a screenshot showing both issues. Most of the nodes have no dates, so they show the blank bpt/bur lines. The text fields also overlap, even after AutoArrangement.

Thanks.

Hi Jesse, and welcome to the forum.

I agree there does seem to something amiss there and not as I remember it (but my memory is not good :heheSmile. I need to revisit the phrases used and eliminate the solitary bap. and bur..  I'm away for a few days so may not have a solution for awhile. The phrases are constructed as per the GenoPro Report Generator Phases as defined in the SDK.

I can confirm that autoarrange does not to take account of the length of the top display label, but does take into account long names in the bottom label area. IMO this is a bug within GenoPro so perhaps GenoPro can make an adjustment to the code to correct this.

Hi again,
Took a quick look and may be the attached Dictionary.xml with revised phrases will work better for you Jesse. Let me know if it does and I will update the skin to include it.

Thanks Ron, that works very well. I'll poke around about the GenoPro AutoArrange bug.

I peeked at the GenoDate documentation and derived a phrase with month and day (eg, "1955-05-05 Abitibi, Canada" instead of "1955 Abitibi, Canada"). This works fine, but I don't see any way to zero-pad digits (eg, "1955-05-05" instead of "1955-5-5"); is this possible in Dictionary.xml?

I have:

<IndividualCustomTag9
  C1="Date & place of birth/baptism (b./bpt. yyyy-mm-dd x..x)"
  T="[b.[{?0}[ {0}][-{1}][-{2}]][ {3}]][{?!0^3}[{?0|3}[{?4|5}{\\br}]]][bpt.[{?!0}{?4} {4}[-{5}][-{6}]][{?!3} {7}]]"
  P="i.Birth.Date.Year, i.Birth.Date.Month, i.Birth.Date.Day, i.Birth.Place.Name, i.Birth.Baptism.Date.Year, i.Birth.Baptism.Date.Month, i.Birth.Baptism.Date.Day, i.Birth.Baptism.Place.Name"
/>

It can be a little bit easier than that. For example just change the default date formats later in the Dictionary and then use something like i.Birth.Date.ToString(&#34;&#34; ) for dates. &#34; is XML numeric entity for " (quotes) character. The phrase templates do not need to be changed at all.Try the attached Dictionary where I have made the above changes.

Perfect; thanks!

(I filed a bug report about the AutoFormat-wide-labels issue.)

Ron,

When is the new version will be released, which can be displayed in Adobe and compatible with other similiar to svg.

Currently my family tree is too large for Adobe acrobat.

Thank you,

Robert
