Junior Member Customers GenoPro version: 2.b20c Last Login: Sunday, May 15, 2011 Posts: 20, Visits: 78	Hi to all. My congratulations too to Dan Morin for his great work. I just purchased GenoPro, after using the unregistered version 1.91 for a couple of months, having created more than 1,100 people-entries in my (and my wife's) family tree. The program is great and I love it! A feature I love but wonder whether it can be improved is 'AutoArrange'. It's great that it makes everything look so neat, however it's a bit of a problem that generation hierarchy is not easily identifiably at first sight. What I mean is that, for example, cousins of mine appear above (on the tree, visually, not hierarchically) some grand-parents of mine. Perhaps this is inevitable, especially for trees that get too extended horizontally, however I was wondering whether there can be a solution to it. Again, congratulations to Dan for what he has done, and hopefully for what he will still do. Stefanos Cyprus Edited: Sunday, October 8, 2006 by Stefanos

I noticed a minor bug in the "Inflate Tree" function (which otherwise will suit my purposes admirably): Twin links are not moved with their respective child relation lines, which means that after a couple of inflations, the twins (and there are a few sets in this genogram) have their child relation lines stretched halfway across the genogram from where they should be. I took "before" and "after" screenshots, cropped to one relevant section of the tree. Apologies for the difference in zoom level, but it was necessary due to the nature of the issue. Note the twins being stretched (and yes, the twins marker was selected; I double-checked to make sure that "select all" included twins markers): Edit: I should also note that this is using GenoPro 2011.
