One way to clear up the mess and return everyone to proper health and sobriety would be Export your .gno to either xml or GenoPro's proprietary 'Gedcom' format and then use search and replace to replace your colours with some that do not clash with GenoPro's choice for health conditions 

e.g. to remove alcoholism in an xml export search for Symbol="#0000FE"  and replace with Symbol="#0000FD".

Then open the .xml with GenoPro and save as normal .gno

I'm having a similar problem with the latest version. The genealogy in question is of British royalty and nobility, and I use the quartered colours in the gender symbol to identify specific noble families based on the dominant (if possible) colours in the family's coat of arms. Having entire families linked to depression, obesity, or heart disease (among other things) is misleading at best, with a variety of worse possibilities. I also use borders of different colours to identify royal lines, so having those predefined is annoying too. Presently, my genogram is describing all Scottish monarchs as alcoholics, which, while amusing, is definitely untrue.

I changed the colors to no longer conflict with the standard red and blue colors.  For instance, GenoPro displays alcoholism in RGB(0, 0, 254) instead of RGB(0, 0, 255).

Let's hope this change will not disturb too many existing genograms.

Another issue with the individual Display:

1. check all the four squares to Blue
2. the Depression button is now down
3. when click to that button all squares will be cleared, not only the top-left
4. when clicking to the button again the top-left will change to blue, the rest three remain clean

I tried with some other colours which linked to a button, the same (hepatitis with green, etc.)

 Or at least to be able to associate the medical conditions with different, rarer, colours.


I agree, there is technically 4 billions colors, those could be another color.

Hard to change later if there break of compatibility... will check that issue with Dan.

I'm also seeing this problem (in 2.5.3.8). I have chosen to colour all my direct ancestors blue to highlight them. But this has changed them all to alcoholics! Selecting the affected individuals an then clicking the Alcoholism button in Medical Pedigree removes the Alcoholism tooltip, but it also changes them all back to black. This is not what I want! I want to keep them blue, but remove the connection between the colour and the medical condition. I see that there are only three medical conditions that are highlighted in this way: Ludomania, Drug Abuse, and Alcoholism. But these conditions are using the three most popular colours.

The ability to colour the gender symbols is one of Genopro's most powerful features. It is a shame to have this feature overloaded with the little-used Medical Pedigree without being able to disable it. Or at least to be able to associate the medical conditions with different, rarer, colours.

I am attempting to eat humble pie.

All of your advice to me was correct but me being a computer idiot at times was not following the right procedures.

In trying yet again I did what I had been told and now everything appears to be in order.

My thanks and sincere apologies for wasting your time but hope that I may come back again to ask the questions as they arise ( and there sure to happen!!! ).

What error do you get when you are attempting to upgrade GenoPro?  Can you post a screenshot of the error message?

Again my thanks, but my programme doesn't or wont let me download for some reason.

I will keep trying but it might need my guru to come in again although I don't like being defeated.

T.D.
