I want to show at the Tree,  the Full Name plus a Nick Name.

I tryed to change the "Display Name", at Properties, but I didn´t find this option.

What I want is to show, the Full Name in this sequence and format:
Title First Middle Last Last2 (Nick) (Alternative)

Is it possible?

P.S.: I don´t want to show the Nick above the person draw, because I show there the "Date of Birth and Date of Death (on separate lines)".

Unfortunately GenoPro does not have the option of  Title First Middle Last Last2 (Nick) (Alternative).  In the long run, the template should be a text field where people may enter their own templates to format the names.

I have a question, I have created a large family tree. Is is possible that a newer version will overwrite it?

If you save any file with the same name as an existing file the data is overwritten. So use a slightly different name. In this way you also have a back-up and it is useful to have a record of how the family history is progressing. GenoPro file (.gno) is very compact and does not take up much space - easily fits on a memory stick. All files can be set to point to the same photographs, which can use a lot of memory

You mean overwriting your family tree by upgrading GenoPro?

The answer is no.  When you upgrade, the installer removes only the files it previously installed by opening the file c:\Program Files\GenoPro\uninstall.cfg.  Unless you named your family tree HarryPotter.gno in the folder c:\Program Files\GenoPro\SampleFiles\, then your family tree will remain there.

It is always good to perform a regular backup in case of a hard disk crash.
