the new SourceWriter. SourceWriter makes it simple for you to select
the correct input screen so that you enter all the pieces needed to
correctly cite any source of information in the thousands of formats
that exist for them. The information you enter is correctly and

citations when printing footnotes, endnotes, and bibliographies.

you through the setup process in an easy-to-understand way.

connected, not only through direct blood relationships but also by
marriage. A person might be the "great-grandfather of the wife of your
2nd great-grandnephew. You can also specify how many of these non-blood
relationships you want to see.
7. More Powerful Searching - Searching your Legacy data is
easier than ever before. You can now search for individuals that are
missing parts of names, birth or death information, marriage information
and much more. You can also search for missing source citations as you
document your family files.

Along with attaching pictures, sounds, and video to individuals, events,
locations, and sources, you can now also attach any other kind of
document (PDFs, Word files, etc.).
9. Enhanced Backups - Legacy can now backup your family file
and multimedia files at the same time, making it easier to transfer
everything to another computer.
10. Edit Records from the "Used By" Lists - All of the master
lists in Legacy have an option to view the individuals who use the
items in the list. You can now edit those individuals right from the
list instead of having to exit the list and edit them separately.
11. Standardization Tips - New alerts will appear if
something questionable has been entered in the Individual's Information
screen. This helps users keep their data standardized. The
Standardization Tips comply with Getting it Right.
12. Privacy - enhanced privacy options ensure that only the information you want to share will be visible to others.
13. Best Fit Child Columns - The new Best Fit option in the
Family View expands or contracts the child list columns to fit the
number of children for the current couple. No more trying to guess the
optimum number of child columns. Legacy does it for you.
