Using the latest default format, I notice an occasional comestic issue on the Notes and Sources pane. 

If I have a lengthy HTML note, it can throw the subsequent layout off. See attached for example.

Can you email me separately a simple file with these data? It seems strange as the elements are not connected. Are you using a modified Default Format?

You could also try the latest Default Format posted on line (you can install it using the “Download Extension” in the Extensions menu).

Hi John

I sent separately a small GEDCOM which shows the layout issue in the Notes and Sources tab.

It only occurs if the note is HTML, and of course, if there are multiple notes at that level then the whole notes doesn't appear, so all is okay.

I no longer use the Modified Default Format. No need since you amended yours to more or less emulate it. It's wonderful now.

I did download the latest version as suggested, but it made no difference to the problem.

Hope this is what you need.

Thanks

Mick
