I have attached a revised English Narrative Report skin. This covers some of the later issues in topic http://support.genopro.com/Topic17661-60-1.aspx. The main changes are a few more translation aids that were not ready in time for 2.0.0.5. The skin contains a ChangeLog.txt file outlining the changes to Dictionary.xml for those of you who have translated it to other languages.

The main change is in place prefixes, prepositions or 'locative' cases. If you add two Custom Tags to the Place object, namely Name.Gender & Name.Plural, then the Dictionary entries can take account of the gender of a Place name and its plurality. So we can have a place 'Pays-Bas' with an automatic prefix and set its Name.Plural Custom Tag to 'Y' and a Place France with Name.Gender set to 'F' to use the Dictionary entries

<PlacePrefix_Country T="au" P="aux" /> to arrive at aux Pays-Bas
and <PlacePrefix_Country_F T="en" /> to get en France

(hopefully next week I'll include name translation to translate 'Holland' to 'Pays-Bas' via the NameDictionary)

similarly in German we can have

<PlacePrefix_AtThe T="in dem" />

<PlacePrefix_AtThe_F T="in der" />

The other major change is expanded forms of the date span phrases. Note that I have removed the leading space from these phrases and so Dictionary phrases that use them have also been changed.

Minor changes are a facility for gender-specific terms for twins and possessive forms the the 'spouse/mate' alternatives.

Also a little tweak to Timelines to have a minimum gap of 30 pixels for events sharing the same timeline 'track' as I found it looked odd when two events occurred 'back-to-back'.
