TreeDraw 3.1.1 for Legacy not importing all Pictures

Post by manueljlopez » Tue Jun 07, 2011 5:53 am

When I import from Legacy 7.5.0.89, not all the pictures are being imported.
My family pics are in several folders (in legacy), example:
d:arbol-doc/pictures
d:arbol-doc/pictures/eger
d:arbol-doc/pictures/montenegro
d:arbol-doc/pictures/sisters

Only the pictures on d:arbol-doc/pictures/sisters are being imported into TreeDraw.
I do not have any problems with the Legacy Chart apps.
I am sure I am doing something wrong. Please help. It use to work.

Hi,

Please check the options settings in TreeDraw for importing pictures. If the picture is not flagged for printing in Legacy then you will need to turn off the option "Must have print flag" in TreeDraw.

Sometimes Legacy loses track of which folder the pictures are stored in. Please try the Legacy function "File | File Maintenance | Check/Repair".

If these don't work you may have to reimport the pictures into Legacy.

I have done everything you suggested. Still does not work. It does work (print pictures) with Legacy Charting and with all reporting functions books)

Hi,

Please try deleting one of the pictures in Legacy and then adding the same picture back in. Then try the import into TreeDraw and see if this picture now appears.

In Legacy Family Tree, I edited the picture, then LOAD NEW pic, and selected the same pic as the old one with the same path.
I went to TreeDraw and import a descendent tree, now that picture show up (it was not before), but the rest of the pictures (about 400) still do not show up. Do I have to repeat this procedure for the rest of the pics? Hope not.

I had this problem too - it seems to be a Legacy problem - when deactivating and reactivating the print flag in Legacy for each picture importing to TreeDraw seems to work (at least it did in my case)
So no need to delete the picture and import it again.
