Tuesday's Tips provide brief how-to's to help you learn to use the Legacy Family Tree software with new tricks and techniques.
Find a Grave Options (Beginner)
There is a specific feature I want to point out because a lot of people seem to miss it. On the main Ribbon go to Search > Find a Grave. Notice that there is a little down arrow thingie (technical term) at the bottom right of the Find a Grave icon. Click that down arrow thingie and you get an enhanced menu.
These are very useful options but unless you know where they are they will be no of use to you. There is one more feature I want to show you. On the Individual's Information screen you will see a field to record the person's Find a Grave memorial number. Notice that the label Find a Grave ID is underlined. That means it is a clickable hot link. If there is a Find a Grave memorial number entered, you will be taken to that person's memorial page. If there is no number entered, you will be taken to the Find a Grave search screen.
Happy grave hunting!
