No wizardry. To rearrange lines, select and put the cursor over the central  blue square. If the cursor is a cross you can drag the line. Move it slightly so that it becomes a vertical line, and you can separate the line.
The trick I mentioned earlier also is useful. Select the family line and change the relationship. Move Bettyann to the right and you get this image. Somehow you have added another family line which has another line below it. This is the source of the note about single parent. It looks as though starting from a blank family line is causing problems.

If you expand the lines there is a hidden extra line

OK, I don't know how you did that. (expand the lines) You must be some kind of a wizard. 

But it still does not answer the question, how can a childless couple be named as parent.

Weird, isn't it. However if you open the Family Tags there are no Mates listed in either case. The only difference in the tags is that on James the box
'Make Label / Exclude From Report' is ticked
Clear this and things return to normal


You did it! Thanks.

I was going through the tree and found another where there is a female biological pedigree and a marriage then divorce and another marriage. No children from either marriage. Check the tags on the Make Label / Exclude from Report and it is unchecked. The Family correctly lists parents, sibling and husbands. It does not indicate any children. However, it also shows her as single parent.

The other tags on each of the husbands are sans Make Label..., they identify female correctly.

I have another snippet.

Sorry to be a pest about this but, any ideas?

Can you make an extract of the problem family? Select, copy and paste into a new file and post it. Check the problem still exists and somebody might find a solution


Here is a portion of the tree that has the problem.

Could you also tell me why two individual pedigree's, linked as mates, can be listed as parents when no children are attached?

I appreciate any guidance you all can provide.

I suspect Ron's suggestion could be the answer. Try clicking the family line and change the relationship to uncommitted - dotted blue. Then move Stephanie horizontally (both directions) to see if there are more than one lines.
To separate them you need to select the line and put the cursor over the central blue box. If the cursor is a cross you drag the line but when it is a vertical line you can separate them


I changed the family line to dotted blue. I moved Stephanie Circle left and right, no additional lines appeared. I then clicked on just the blue dots and put the cursor on the center blue handle with the cross. Moved it left and right. No additional lines. Took the focus from the family line and moused over again until center handle had vertical line with arrowheads. Moved that up and down. Again no additional lines appeared.

Then deleted family line entirely. Selected James' square and set link as mate to Stephanie.  James' square said Pedigree Link: Parent (Name), Stephanie's circle said Pedigree Link: Parent (Name). The grayed out family line reads Stephanie single parent. It reads the same when relationship changes from Married or Uncommitted.

I have tried the same steps above using Stephanie's circle and linking to James' square as mate. Same result.

What I am completely mystified about is how can anyone be a parent if there are no links to children??? Shouldn't the family line simply say James and Stephanie (Marriage/Uncommitted)?

By the way, I appreciate your taking the time to even look at this forum on the first day of a new year, much less responding.Smile (That is me pleased, not laughing!)

Try hovering your cursor over James and his mate in turn. The pop-up should display the number of children (2 in this case). If there is no mention of children, then that person is not connected to the Family Line. Delete the Pedigree Link from that person and reconnect (the 'handles' on the Family Line should turn red).


Sorry to be a pest. I tried what you suggested. I deleted links between James and then issued link as new mate. Handles turned red, to Stephanie. See the attachment. It shows the new family link and Stephanie is a single parent. Note there is no link to either of the two children.
