I followed your way, and it is a good example for what we are talking about - as far as I have understood. It is - at least - an unexpected behavior to have to chose out of a list of 0 persons. Of course, it could be possible that there indeed is a person you want to identify with the new one which only wasn't automatically found. But the grandfather can not be the child itself. <br /><br />In that case, at least another prompt could help beginners to understand what happens: I am asked to check personally if one of the proposed or one of the other existing entries is identic with the person to be generated. Proposal: Instead of "Selected person| To select..." and similar expressions in the other languages we should read "Check existing persons|Is one of the existing persons identic to ...?"<br /><br />But again, I would tend to treat it as an error: 1) If I generate a child called 'Priska' (f), it's clear, that there is no such person in the database; 2) If I want to generate a new person as a child which already exists but is only hidden because of no relation to the familie, I get a proposal of the person: great; 3) But why does the software understand that the existing "Robert" needn't be proposed because he can't be the grandpa of himself (seems that there is a corresponding check) but offers the select-a-person-prompt anyway? If you don't want to call it an error, I call it an unappropriate behavior. I can't see it as a feature instead of a bug.<br /><br />In the logic of the software, are there doubted cases where an empty list is prompted although there may be a person matching? If not, it shouldn't be much work to simply leave those empty lists out.<br /><br />I don't care much about it, but maybe it could be eliminated in the next big version 3.0 that people are talking about from time to time. To me, it's not a hypothetic case but something that appears every now and then, so it can be annoying in the long run - depending on the 'name policy' that guided the family branch you are working on at the moment.<br /><br />EDIT: If you, Marcus, agree, I would forward a note to Dirk B. with a text proposal for EN, DE and FR for the next AB version - as a first step. That's what I can do.<br /><br />Fridolin</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spacerow"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name="" id=""></a>Marcus</span> <br /> <img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="150" height="1" /></td> <td class="row2" valign="top"> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td><img src="templates/cback/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" class="imgspace" alt="Post" title="Post" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: 19.02.2017, 18:46 Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="postbody">I'm still not convinced that here is an error at all.<br /><br />Maybe the function is just misunderstood?<br /><br /></span> <div align="center"> <div class="quotetitle"><nobr>« FZiegler » wrote:</nobr></div> <div class="quotediv"> But I've got an idea in which cases those empty 'select-a-person'-windows pop up: I've had the case for several times where I wanted to generate a new child or sibling that had the <span style="font-weight:bold">same name</span> (or the same beginning of the first name) <span style="font-weight:bold">as its father</span> - in those cases I got the empty selector window.

This doesn't make much sense. I don't remember whether it's always or only sometimes - or the cases when it happens. <br /> <br />Indeed, I haven't exactly understood your situation when it happens. Your wrote: ' If a double appears, the proposed list of double does not appear'. As far as I know, I mostly haven't a double matching already in the stored data. It only looks like I should have (in the opinion of the software). I just want to insert a new person (I don't remember whether it happens while setting a new person directly from the navigator or from another person's window). <br /> <br />In fact, I got used to the prompt and don't care much about it any more - usually I know the person is new and not yet part of the database. If you're not sure: When you switch to "All persons", I think you can <span style="font-weight:bold">type in the beginning of the name</span> or even nane and first name (EDIT: no, you can't - see below), so you can look quickly if the person is already there or not. You don't have to scroll through the whole list. <br /> <br />But you're right: It would be nice if the automatism didn't fail all the time. So: ...waiting for a better description of the problem, so that Dirk B. can find the point of error. Now knowing you've still the same problem, I will try to document the case when the problem appears. Will take a few weeks.
