- Importing from a file will create a Master Source citation attached to every imported fact, noting the name of the source file and the date of import. This is very similar to what had previously been the case for imports from the World Family Tree (WFT) CDs, but now extended to all imports.
FIX: There is a secret setting in the configuration file (FTW.INI) which controls this behavior, in the [Options] section:
| WFTAddSources=False |
[Note: NO semicolon!]
|
"True" causes the sources to be added, which is also the default.
 |
General instructions for editing, and what the semicolons (;) do. |
- Deletion of Master Sources which have referent citations is prohibited. Previously, these could be deleted without any problem (perhaps too easily). Now, in version 5 and following versions, all the citations to a Master Source item must be deleted before the Source itself can be deleted.
FIX: There is none. All the citations must be deleted one by one before the Master Source can be deleted. To delete them, you must first find them.
