Reports - The Descendant Narrative report now does Henry Numbering as an option.
Potential Problems -When you edit an individual there is now a checkbox along the bottom of the window to exclude that person from the Potential Problems report. This used to be accessible in Legacy 2.0 by right clicking on an individuals tag.
Master Lists - Added tagging capabilities to all master lists.
Marriage List - Added Arrow key support and the Enter key will select the currently highlighted person. The Marriage List now works like the Name List.
To Do Item - Added right click support for cut, copy, paste to To Do Description, To Do Results and Repository Notes.
Backup of Multimedia files - Speed improvements make backups much faster now.
Gedcom Import - There is now a new feature that lets you add some user-defined text to all unrecognized items that are put in the Notes fields during import. This lets you search for the text later to see what all was added to the notes.
Export - When exporting, there is a new option to Include General To Do Items.
Web Pages - Added missing </div> tag to end of Pedigree style web pages
Shortcut Keys - Changed the shortcut key from Alt-O to Alt-B for Combining items in a Master List. There was a conflict where the Options button was also using the Alt-O shortcut key.
Search - Misc. Search for Oldest Direct line generation is now working correctly.
Addresses -An asterisk is now added to the notes tab so you can tell there are address notes to look at.
Sources - On the bottom of the Individual's Source screen we have added Recorded Date and User File Num to the Detail tab. Also, if you have the option to show entire source set on the Output tab, these two items will be included in the output.
Customize - The optional reminder messages that can be turned off can now be turned back on selectively instead of all or nothing.
