Matching Window Tutorial

Preparing to Merge in new Parents


We just pressed the button to find a match for Queen Elizabeth II, so we came to this window in which we can see the base and change source(left and right), (old and new) trees side by side.  Notice that Queen Elizabeth II is selected in the change source tree on the right.





Above the tree is an area of controls for finding matching people.  It is offering suggested matches to people in the base tree.  By operating the pull-down list we can see that the one and only match being offered is to Queen Elizabeth II in the base tree.


In this case, the program has automatically looked for and found the best match for Queen Elizabeth on the left side, so we can immediately go to work.


The base file does not know about her parents, but the change source file does, so we will merge in the parents in the following steps.

To help out the program it is now time to tell it about people that are matches.  We can do that by pressing the "Mark All Likely Matches" button.  This will take all the visible people and see if they seem to match the person in the corresponding spot on the other tree.  After pressing that button, we see the picture on the next page:
