Marriage date in Tree View

[Colin L]

A simple question with what will probably be a simple answer, except I can't find it. How do I get marriage dates to show in Tree View?

Marriage date is supposed to show by default. Pop up the manual and find "Tree View Settings" for more information. I am not aware of a preference that would turn that off. A question for Leister staff I think..

Thanks, Bob, that's what I thought when I couldn't find any on/off function for it.

Marriage dates are automatically included in the Tree View. However, they have to be entered in the right place -- the correct place to enter marriage dates is the Marriage tab of the Edit Family screen, which can be accessed by clicking the marriage field in the Family View:



If you've entered the dates somewhere else, e.g. in the Events list of the Edit Person screen, they won't be included in the Tree View.

Thanks, Mark. I discovered that by chance the other day. I had been entering marriage dates only in Events. Using Reunion is quite a steep learning hill!
