 === Assorted Good Ideas  ===
+==== Using Different Views of the Landscape Pedigree view  ====
+The landscape view does have nice flexibility in view options. These are accessed through the "Show" menu which is in the top right hand side of the page just under your name and the button "Help Others." Click "Show" and you see a drop down menu that allows you to choose which icons you want to see in your tree. The choices include:
+*Request Ordinances
+*Record Hints
+*Research Suggestions
+*Data Problems
+*Portraits
+*Marriages
+*Invert Colors
+You can check any or all of these and then those icons will appear in your tree.
 ==== How to Start a Tree without Using Living Relatives  ====
-there is nothing wrong with starting a tree with yourself or your parents. Noone but you will see any living people you enter into the tree. However if you prefer to start with members of your family who are deceased there is a way to do this. Go to the Person dropdown list and at the bottom is "Add unconnected Person". You could do this for each of your grandparents. Then bookmark the page where they come up. Once you have visited each page, they will come up in the person drop down list without your having to use your bookmarks.
