Genealogy Software Updates of the Week
Ancestral Quest 14.8 (Full Featured - Windows - Purchase)
• Descendant Dropline Chart: If you asked for all boxes on a generation to be the same size, AQ actually only made the boxes for a given family to be the same size. Now it makes all boxes for all families on that generation to be the same size.
• Descendant Dropline Chart: If a descendant had children, but no spouse, the grouping of child boxes were not placed on the chart in the proper position. Fixed.

• Combine/Merge: FamilySearch has requested that users no longer use commercial programs such as AQ to combine records in nFS, but rather to use the Merge of Family Tree. AQ will no longer allow combines, but will still help you identify duplicates, and set up the Family Tree merge screen, so all you have to do is click the 'Merge' button (or equivalent) in Family Tree.
