Sources and citations

Window where you can manage all sources and citations in your family register.

In the tree to the left of the window are all sources arranged in alphabetical order and if you expand a source all citation to the source. If extended citation option is checked you will event see citations that contain no data. When you select an item in the tree it displays information about the item and/or the user to the right of the window.

If you type eg ”Pe” and the source tree is checked, the focus moves to the source whose name (abbreviation/title) first begins with the search phrase. There is also a separate search field that receives focus if you press F3 which looks for occurrences of the phrase in the source abbreviation, title, author, publication or if phrase occurs in the citation or source or citations id. Press Enter to search the next occurrence of the phrase.
