Diagram Spouse Display Options
Ken
To save space on a printed descendants diagram, I would like the main direct line descendant to have spouse in own box printed side by side, but for the siblings to have the spouse and children to appear below the sibling. Is there any way of achieving this since I understand that the spouse display options apply to the whole diagram. I am using FH 6.2.7

I am struggling to understand your scenario. Certainly, spouse display options apply to the whole diagram.
In a Descendants Diagram, what do you mean by main direct line descendant? Maybe just the Diagram Root? They are all direct lines descendants with their spouses, so I don’t know what you mean by siblings with spouses & children. If spouses & children appear below a sibling, what happens if those children have spouses?
I wonder if you mean an Ancestors and Descendants Diagram which does display the siblings of the Diagram Root person.
I think it would help to know what space you are trying to save, as there may be simple orientation options that would help. Is it that the diagram is too wide? If so they try Orientation: Left-right.

Mike,
Thanks for replying.
To put it simply, it would be nice if each individual in a diagram had
their own spouse option, rather than one option for the whole diagram. But I
realise that this would entail substantial changes to the program.
However, as you suggest, I think I can achieve what I want with some
judicious Moving and Hiding.
Thanks again
