I want to create a chart that has a source couple, three of their children, those children's spouses (two marriages are involved with one of them), parents of those spouses, and two grandchildren of the source couple with their marriages. I want to show inter-relations among four families.
The big deal in this is that I can't seem to generate a chart that includes a couple with both sets of their parents. What I'd like to do is--under the relative chart, where it asks for "who"--to press both of those radio buttons, to select both members of a couple. Is there a way to merge two family charts, perhaps?
First, then--are there any suggestions for help here? I've been starting with a relative chart for one of the children. It's only about a dozen people, but however I do it, I can only get about half of who I want.
Second--since I can't figure that out on my own, I've been trying to add in boxes. When I select a box, ctrl-click on it, and "add box," however, this only gives the option to add a child box. Is there a way to add a spouse box instead--with the connection that looks like a parallelogramy-style bracket instead of a line?
Thanks for your help!
