    On a family page, which child is my direct ancestor?

    If I have a family page open, eg. for my GGG grandparents, is there a way to indicate which of their children is my direct ancestor. In other words, which child should I select to eventually get back to me. (I know the Home button on the bottom bar gets to me directly - I want to go down the family tree).
    I notice that a child who does not have their own children is in lighter grey type (I originally thought this was Bold/not Bold but it seems not), so my ancestor must be in dark type.
    I also know that I can add a relationship column, but that's a waste of space because I only want one child identified.

    Andrew,
    FWIW when I have families with several children one of whom is my direct ancestor, I usually click-on and drag that person to the top of the children's list. That's my easy way
    of spotting direct ancestors and is usually in bold lettering.

      Hi Andrew,

      Search the manual for "direct lines bold" (no quotes) to see your options.
