What’s New in Version 8?

Simpler Navigation - The new main window lets you switch between different screens (people, sources, places, tasks, media, etc.) without losing your place. The new "Couple View" and expandable "Descendants View" give you new insights into your families.

Easier Editing - You may now have more than one person's edit screen open at a time. You can also use other software features while the edit screen is open. All of a person's information is now accessible from their edit screen. You can even switch to the edit screen of any family member and then instantly switch back.

Searching at Your Fingertips - Lists of data now have their own search box, allowing you to quickly find matching items. Advanced searching tools have all been grouped together into one easy screen.

Save to Modern Formats - Reports and charts may be saved in newer, more compatible formats including Microsoft Word .DOCX, Microsoft Excel .XLSX, and .SVG.

New Wallcharts & Fancharts - Wallcharts have been rebuilt from the ground up, giving beautiful new features and colouring as well as one of the most requested features - fan charts.

Reusable Source Citations - Reusable citations let you create a citation once and then attach it to multiple people or events.

Streamlined Tasks - To-do items, correspondence lists, and research logs have been brought together into streamlined "tasks". Tasks are easily attached to people, sources, media, and more while being quickly searched and filtered.

Better Places & Mapping - The Place List is now reversible and can directly show you all the events where the place is used. People and events can be quickly edited from the Place List. The Map View shows you the location of each place and any desired group of people

And Much More - Many more enhancements to colour coding, groups, media handling, reports, and more!
