I will check for these records. Would they have been automatically created as I have never created a birth record.

Is there anyway to connect a common source document to multiple records in the genealogy?

That significantly cleaned up the reports. Thank you!!!
In the "Narrative lineage of ascendents or descendants" report, could something similar be done to clean up the report where there are missing records. For example, the report now produces:
Zeruiah
Zeruiah, daughter of Nahash and , born , lived with .
Known children of and Zeruiah
1. Abishai, born .
2. Joab, born .
3. Asahel, born .
When there are missing birth and/or maternal/paternal records, Could this be fixed to produce something like this:
Zeruiah
Zeruiah, daughter of Nahash
Known children of and Zeruiah
1. Abishai
2. Joab
3. Asahel

All of the reports under the "Linage" section include the "?," when the family name is not in the database.
The tree reports include "unknown" for missing records. In ANE genealogies, the maternal records are frequently missing so an ascending tree includes many "unknown" records. A descending tree would be more complete because the paternal information is included and there is an occasional maternal record.

I figured out the Tree report issue i.e. the Tree reports are generally ascending reports and I was starting at the top of the tree. For me descending trees would be far more helpful.
Regarding report customization, being able to omit the family name in a report so that the field did not show up as ? would be helpful i.e. "5-11111 ?, Jesse (I00048)". I would prefer to see "5-11111 Jesse (I00048)" Additionally, I would like to create reports with fields like "sources" included. Is there a way to create customized reports beyond the customizations allowed in the options section?
Note: I am primarily working on ANE genealogies and family names are typically redundant i.e. simply "son of ..." (and they are rarely given); however, identifying original sources is very important and it would be very helpful to see that in reports and not just in the User Interface.

Is there a way to modify reports to omit fields like "family/last name?"
When I run reports under the tree section, I get only the name selected and all other branches show "unknown;" this is true in several different tree reports. Is there something I am missing or is this just broken.
Note: I am using a recently installed v12

How do I create a new name structure? I tried using "other names" but that did not appear to work when I changed the form to <prop path=INDI:NAME?1:GIVN>
ETA: I it figured out, I just needed to change the index.

ENGLISH / Can I access individual properties of an alias in the HTML in dynamic tree
« on: November 09, 2023, 17:31:38 »
I would like to a custom display for objects in the dynamic tree that displays the first name field of Aliases. So far I can add all of the alias fields but cannot find a way to limited only to the first name field.
I have tried <prop path=INDI:ALIA:NAME:GIVN> and <prop path=INDI:ALIA:GIVN> both of which return nothing, if I limit it to <prop path=INDI:ALIA> It returns multiple fields from the object.
Below is the HTML code
========================
<body bgcolor=#fffdba>
<table border="0" width=100% bgcolor=#fffdba color=black>
<tr valign="top">
<td width=0><media max=25></td>
<td>
<table border="3" width=100% bgcolor=#fffdba>
<tr>
<td width=10><prop path=INDI:SEX img=yes txt=no></td>
<td><table width=100%>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<b><prop path=INDI:NAME:GIVN max=50></b> <br>
<prop path=INDI:ALIA:NAME:GIVN>
</td>
<td align="right">
<font color=blue><b><prop path=INDI:_SOSADABOVILLE></b></font> <br>
<prop path=INDI>
</td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
</table>
