Adding hyperlinks to a Note field

When entering DNA data, I had been adding the links manually in the Common Ancestor Fact Note.

However, entering two URLs in a Note causes havoc!

Done in the wrong order you can end up with one rubbing out the other. I found it much safer to add one separately afterwards when entering DNA data, so when I am adding the Family Group from FH it has been added to Auto Type 3 and Auto Type 4 becomes the entry button for the Linked URL.

Similarly, I have put The Text from Source pane after the Note pane for the Citation-specific details on Source Records.


Add the linked page for the MRCA

TEXT TEMPLATE

HEADING: MRCA URL (this must match the name of the field)

<[MRCA URL]|<\<span style=”color:Red”\>

Refresh browser page\<br\>

Copy link\<br\>

ALT+click to enter

 \</span\>>>

AUTO TYPE TEMPLATE

{Ctrl+Space}

{SHIFT+F10}{FAST}{DOWN*6}{RIGHT}{DOWN}{ENTER}

<[MRCA URL]>{TAB}

Linked ThruLines page: <[Paternal Ancestor:nameSurname] [Paternal Ancestor:nameGiven] & [Maternal Ancestor:nameSurname] [Maternal Ancestor:nameGiven]>


Add the Family Group link

AUTO TYPE TEMPLATE

{CTRL+SPACE}

FH Family Group: {slow}

{SHIFT+F10}{FAST}{DOWN*6}{RIGHT}{DOWN}{DOWN}{RIGHT}{ENTER}

{CTRL+D}

[Paternal Ancestor:nameSurname] {tab} [Paternal Ancestor:nameGiven]

{8000}

{ALT+F4}{enter}

ORA opens the menu for the link for Family Group, inputs the Paternal Ancestor’s name in the filter and waits for you to select the couple.

It selects Automatic and closes the Note.
