I'm deep into the final editing of a 10-gen ancestor chart, and suddenly I've hit a snag and cannot proceed.
After inadvertently deleting text data from a boxed individual, I tried a manual insert through "Text". I might have acted hastily: according to "Adding Text" in Help, I should have first turned off Word Wrap. Now I am left with a mini-box that for me at least is impossible to understand or control: i.e.; I hit a Return and got overwriting.
It would be a blessing if I could start again at this data point, but the box won't go away; not through Delete, and clicking Text again makes it vanish only temporarily. And while it is there, Options/Preferences is inactive and I cannot turn off Word Wrap (if that indeed is the heart of the problem).
I'm praying there is a quick fix; if I have to start the entire chart from scratch, then it's all over for me. I've put too many hours into it; couldn't go through it again.
Can I recover from an editing slipup?
