    1. [BK] children/events of other spouses, and (lack of) spouse memory

    3. I go to the edit page for a person (let's say man) with more than one spouse. It shows the events (marriage, family residence places/dates) for Spouse 1, or the children by that spouse. I go to the drop-down list of spouses, and select other than Spouse 1. The events/children relating to Spouse 1 disappear, and those relating to Spouse x appear. I click the Spouse x button, to view/edit something specific to that person. I come back (the "<" button) to the man. It reverts to Spouse 1! Could the >/< "memory" perhaps be amended to remember which Spouse I was looking at/with? Also: it would be nice if, in the children tab, all the children of the person whose name is in Name could be shown - OK, with the ones by other than the currently-shown spouse greyed, or something similar. Similarly for events. (I've not infrequently found I've entered a child or event under the wrong spouse, because I saw they were missing, and didn't realise they were there but not shown because a different spouse was selected. I can't be alone in this!) -- J. P. Gilliver. UMRA: 1960/<1985 MB++G.5AL-IS-P--Ch++(p)Ar@T0H+Sh0!:`)DNAf "Don't worry about people stealing your ideas.
