Displaying Occupations in RootsMagic charts
« on: Saturday 10 April 21 11:59 BST (UK) »
Hi

I'm new to RootsMagic and have only just uploaded my family tree data (GEDCOM file).

The RootsMagic family tree charts all seem to display just the name, birth and death details of each person. Is there a way to display occupations, too?

Many thanks

Mike

As far as I can see if you go into REPORTS, CHARTS, BOX CHARTS you can tick boxes with information to include, but only get to choose from BIRTH, DEATH, BURIAL, MARRIAGE & DIVORCE for a printout. I guess it would be too unwieldy with any more, particularly as there may be several occupations for each person. I don't know whether this will change in RootsMagic 8 but you could always request or suggest this in the RootsMagic 8 Forum or Feedback?

For me, it's enough to see it in the PERSON view.

In PEOPLE view you can customise the view and add extra columns with the information you want to be shown, but this will, as far as I can see, only show in that view and will look like a list.
