What you can do is reduce the boxes width, that will alter the size of the tree in width but it will increase the size of the trees height as the boxes will be deeper. Ron
Thanks Ron. I can see your point! Clearly I will have to play with the diagram facility further - FH seems so comprehensive, there must be a way of doing it - I am just in a rush for a deadline.....................as ever! laraine -------------------------------------------------- From: <info@genealogyprinters.com> Sent: Monday, March 12, 2012 12:55 PM To: "Laraine Hake" <laraine10@btinternet.com>; <family-historian-users@rootsweb.com> Subject: Re: [FHU] small tree to print > Subject: [FHU] small tree to print > > >>I am beginning to fully appreciate how fantastic the diagrams are that can >>be produced by FHU but is there any obvious way to produce a very simple >>tree, to print in the middle of an article in an A5 magazine in this case? >>Is it possible to have no boxes at all but just the names, for example? >>Alternatively, I could export into a lesser programme like FTM or see if >>Tree Draw software is still available.......... >> > > It doesn't matter what program you use to design a tree the boxes will > still always be there even though you choose not to show them, you cannot > make a tree any smaller by not having boxes because every program will > still have them on the tree although you can't see them. > > What you can do is reduce the boxes width, that will alter the size of the > tree in width but it will increase the size of the trees height as the > boxes will be deeper. > > Ron >
