TribalPages is pleased to announce the first of several updates that will enhance the look and feel of your sites.

We have updated the Ancestor and Descendant views. On the left of each name is a thumbnail photo. Hovering on the picture will display a larger picture.

Clicking on the names will pop up an information dialog box with a photo slideshow and bio data.

Let us know what you think.

Looks very good . Thank You TRIBAL SUPPORT

Is it just me or are all the name boxes supposed to be that large. They do not look correct, and in keeping with a balanced site

See SCREEN SHOT

Hi Les,

No, it was not supposed to look like that. Not sure what browser you are using. Below is what your site looks like from IE-11 or Chrome

Hi Tribal Support, your Screen Shot looks GREAT,

Found my trouble. As I have ARMD and eyesight fails, I went to VIEW on top of screen and had adjusted TEXT SIZE to MEDIUM, have now gone to SMALLEST setting, and it now shows as yours.

May help others to know this, on TP' latest addition

My apologies

Thanks Les. I now have text set on smallest but print size is still not same as T/P example. I think I need to adjust the font type. What is your FONT set on.

Hi Alan , mine also . I am using Times New Roman as IE, but this will be overwritten by the WEB PAGE I visit as they will have set their own Fonts as I believe TP wiull have done.

Have attached a new Screen Shot taken at VIEW TEXT SIZE smallest. How does the FONT compare to yours,

Hi TS and Alan,

as you know from my first Screen Shot on

VIEW MEDIUM it looked terrible. I tried VIEW SMALLEST and this seemed to correct it to somewhere near TS' Screen Shot.

I have now in answer to a Query from Alan, retried my site, and lo and behold now at VIEW MEDIUM I get the same effect as VIEW SMALLEST.

Have someone on Tribal Support done a small correction?

Would like to know

Les,

After the change we made an hour back, you should be able to use the default setting of IE and it should work. Please let us know as we would like to make sure this works for default settings.

Thanks Tribal Support, for your help.

Had already spotted it and put on in forum UNDER VERY STRANGE , and mentioned that it could be some tweaking on your part needed.

Thanks Tribalpages & Les,

After going to bed at 12.30am as a result of trying to adjust my computer settings it was nice to get up at 7.30am and find the font size was already fixed. I like the new feature now. Excellent. I was able to put text back to medium.

Hi Tribalpages,

As Les did and using IE11 I have reduced the text size to smallest and the size has come down. However the names are still quite large. Do they need to be that large ?. On my computer they are not as small as per your example.

It is very useful and handy. Thanks

Good idea except that the names are ridiculously large. Looks terrible. I am using IE11 and Windows 8.1

Does the related link show up that way to you. If not it could be what I am using at this end.

I would not be happy with it as it is for me but if as per your example it would be great.

I have just had a look at my site using FlashPeak Slimjet instead of IE 11 and print size shows up OK. Therefore, appears problem is with IE 11.

Looks very nice and seems to be working well in chrome and firefox

I love the "about" pop up boxes in descendant view.

Hi Les,

We are testing the views on various browsers in their default configurations, but are not able to replicate your problem.

The link below will let you test on various browsers. You can pick IE and notice that your page does not have the font issue. The link to your ancestors page is

Thank you Tribal Support, but it is now working , thanks to your adjustment. thought it was not me.

Tried to use the site that you suggested , but as you see

Limited 3 minute sessions Internet Explorer 9 only 1024x768 resolution only

so cannot be done.

Could not see the point of spending $19 .for something that you had corrected

Thanks again

Les
