Precondition :

Complex genograms, where the household members may not necessarily show next to each other, and more than likely they will have been dragged around many times and gone through several "AutoArrange" executions.


Bug :

When the "Household" feature is applied under these conditions, the resulting shape is a messy mesh that crosses its own boundaries at many points, forming a nearly incoherent polygon.


Proposed solutions :

I know the "Hosehold" feature is still in Work.  However, there's two quick solutions than can help solve the problem easily while a more elegant solution is worked through :

1. Allow the user to freely drag the Household's position points, to manually re-arrange its borders.
2. Allow the user to freely modify the "numeric values" of the position points, through the "Table Layout".

Thanks!!

I also want a solution to this problem. At this moment you can not manually manipulate and this makes it a chaotic picture.Sad

Can anyone quickly provide a solution to this problem?

Thanks!

The only 'quick'work-around I can think of  is to place 'invisible' individuals in the household and drag them around to change the household outline. See http://support.genopro.com/Topic25137.aspx 

Tip 2: In order to 'distort' the Household outline, e.g. as in the 1881 Census above to separate it from the 1871 census line, I used a dummy invisible individual (gender unknown, marked as label/exclude from repo rt and marked 'do not display gender symbol' and included it in the household. You can add a comment to it to denote its function and obviously have more than one dummy individuals.
