Hi there,
I want to report two bugs regarding the 'special symbols' (immigration, multi culture) in Genomap 2016:
1. All special symbols on all genomaps are transfered to the first genomap on re-opening a saved document. 2. The symbols for 'immigration' and 'multi-culture' are incorrect (swapped icon).
ad 1.)
Steps for recreating the bug: - Open a new document - Change to Genomap2, place a apecial symbol anywhere - Save the document - Close and reopen it - The special symbol is not on Genomap2 anymore, instead it is on Genomap1
New document:

On GenoMap2, place one of the special symbols:

Close and reopen it:

Cause of the bug: By looking into the xml data saved as *.gno file and searching for the special symbol settings
<SpecialSymbols> <SpecialSymbol ID="SpecialSymbol00001" Symbol="Immigration" Color="#000000"> <Position z="170">835,-470</Position> </SpecialSymbol> [...]
|
it became clear why all the special symbols are switched to the first genomap of the document: Only the coordinates of the position of the special symbols are saved, but not the name of the genomap itself.
ad 2.)
According to The MultiCultural Family Institute (see http://stanfield.pbworks.com/f/explaining_genograms.pdf) and/or based on the symbols in the book "Genograms: Assessment and Intervention", the symbol for immigration is the double wave, the symbol for living in multi-cultures is a single wave.
This is exactly the other way round as it is implemented in GenoPro!
Correctly, it would be:

Yes, I can confirm the fix -- the special symbols now remain on their intended genomaps.
Many thanks for the registration key and for the fast bug fixing!
