Family - Child Edition Page

Purpose

This screen will allow you to manage the relationship between an existing Family and its children, for instance by selecting an existing Individual as child to this Family or by creating a new Individual record as child. The same relationship can be managed starting from the child record using the Individual - Family Edition Page.

Getting There...

From the Main Application Menu (or indeed almost any other Project Hirtius page), click on the "Manage Persons" icon in the header (). This gets you to the Individuals List.
Scroll to the bottom of the page. Click on the Families link located between the Individuals List and the page footer. This gets you to the Families List.
Navigate the Families List until you locate the couple you're looking for.
Then click on the edit action link (last column) to edit the family record in question. This gets you to the Families Edition Page.
Scroll down the Families Edition Page until you see the Children section.
Click on the Edit action link next to it.

Supported actions

The Family - Child Edition Page supports the following actions:

Unlink: removes the link between the Family currently being edited and the selected Individual. No further confirmation is required.

Beyond that, this page will also let you modify existing relationships in different ways and create new ones (see the "link actions" section below). But the actual logic behind these is implemented elsewhere.

Fields

The "family - child relationship" record doesn't have any field that would be edited separately, outside of what the action links and selector screens already described provide.

Controls

Object name

The first row below the page header displays the name of the Family object currently being edited. This name will always contain a link (typically the object type prefix letter -- 'F', see Objects and Metadata Types -- followed by its ID). Clicking on it will lead you back to that object edition page in 'view' mode.

Link actions

For each existing relationship in the list, the first and last columns of its row contain links that correspond to actions to be performed on the relationship record.

Object ID: the Object ID (left-most column) is a link that opens the Individuals Edition Page in view mode for the selected Individual.
Edit: opens the Individuals Edition Page in edit mode for the selected Individual.
Unlink: removes the link between the Family object currently being edited and the selected Individual. No further confirmation is required. Removing this link will also unlink the child Birth Event from the Family event list.

In addition to this, global actions are available on the last row (bottom right corner) of the list:

Link: opens the Individual Selector in a new window. This allows you to select any individual (not already linked with the current family and different from both parents) to form a new child relationship with the Family object currently being edited. When the target Individual has been selected and you close the Individual Selector window, please use the Refresh function of your browser ([F5], typically) to make your latest addition visible in the list.
New: opens the Individuals Edition Page in add mode. The resulting Individual will automatically be created as a child to the currently edited Family object.
