Thank you. I will have a look into Family Tree Maker.

            I converted to Family tree maker a few years back (from legacy family tree which I had used for decades) precisely because it links to tree on ancestry and if you update online you can then sync with offline tree. Its pretty good. Sometimes Myheritage have a few free colourising samples and there are other programs also (for example Pixbim colorsurprise AI, currently 40 dollars) that do that. I found the animating one on Myheritage creepy! HTH

            MyHeritage has offered the 40% discount this year with my having to play the cancellation game. I really do not like this new world where we have to haggle.

            My account review now says
"Review

This implies that I have another year at £59.99 - unless I am misreading ?
