Ancestral Quest 16 was released in October, 2019. There are many new Premium features to enhance your experience when working on your Family History!
Descendants View
This is a much-requested new feature, it joins the Pedigree, Family, Name List, Individual, and Timeline view tabs along the top of the program! The different view provides an additional way to handle and view your families. You can click on the various buttons to the right or left of individuals
to navigate, including the special left arrow next to the main person,
which will let you change the focus to a parent. You can select 1, 2 or 3
generations of descendants, then expand selected lines up to 6
generations deep.
Background Images on many Charts
For many charts, you can now include a background image. The background image can be placed on these reports:
- Pedigree
- Fan
- Ancestry (Standard and Wall chart)
- Descendant (Standard, Wall chart and Dropline chart)
- Line of Descent
- Calendar
- Timeline
The image can be displayed with various opacity levels. You can
even move background images around on the chart. As an example, you
can create a birthday calendar for a month, where you set the page
margins to .5 inches for left, bottom and right, but to 5.8 inches for
top margin (this will put the calendar on the bottom half of an 8.5 x 11
paper), then put a picture on the top half of the page.
Share Custom Events
When you are adding or editing other/custom events within the Edit Individual
screen, you can now share (copy) an event with other individuals in
your database.
For example, after finding a family of 10 on a census
record, you can go to one member of the family, add a “Residence” other
event to indicate that the person lived in that location on the date of
the census, and attach a census source to the Residence event. You can
then Share that event and source quickly with the other 9 members
of the family, without having to individually add the Residence event
to each record. Talk about a time saver!
