Flags suggested by Heredis

There are several types of flags.

• Flags suggested by Heredis to attach information to a person
• Personalized flags to attach information to a person, an event, a fact or a media.

Flags suggested by Heredis are clickable icons, corresponding to characteristics of the person. They allow you to enter other information useful to your genealogy.

These flags cannot be modified.

A click on the icon activates it, a second click deactivates it.

Complete person icon if you know you do not have any research to do or if you do not want to search more on this person even if the major events are not completed.

Untraceable Father icon if the person was born of an unknown father or if you know you won’t be able to find out who he was (no more Archives left for example).

Untraceable Mother icon if the person was born of an unknown mother or if you know you won’t be able to find out who she was (no more Archives left for example).

Note: the untraceable father and untraceable mother flags icons can be ticked both at the same time if both parents are unknown. You will have to untick the flag icon in order to input a father and/or a mother if you found out who he/she was.

Childless icon if you know that the person had no offspring. This flag is grayed out if you input a child to the primary person.

Unmarried icon if you know that the person never married. This flag is grayed out if you input a spouse to the primary person.

Secondary Person icon to indicate that this person has only a minor role in your genealogy. Secondary persons in your file may be excluded from printouts, exports and publications. You may, for example, declare secondary all children who died in infancy so that they are not in your tree charts.

Marked Person icon to highlight a person and apply specific treatment to this person. A marked person may be ignored when you export the file, may be selected with specific research tools, may or may not be printed in a tree chart or a report.

Confidential Person icon to avoid publishing information on this person in your printouts, exports and publications.
