    Perspective events works in aTimeline plot but not in Ages sidebar

    I downloaded the prospective event sets from Leisterpro.com and places it in Home/Library/Application Support/Reunion​/Perspective events folder. Then made a Timeline chart and could display one of the event sets ok. But going to the Ages sidebar and clicking the Perspective Events button there gave no response. Looking at the manual, there should be a list of events appearing when clicking the button. I have made sure the Ages sidebar covers the time interval of the Perspective Event I have downloaded.
    Any suggestion of what I do wrong?

    Also, the manual say that you can display the Events in the report "On this day", but does not tell how to do this. Anyone knows?

    I have gone through the help file and I cannot see how to add a perspective event. The instruction in the help file says Timeline > Perspectives > Add One. The only place I see "Timeline" is in building Charts in the sidebar, but I don't see the Perspectives option.

      Timeline chart:
      You can make a timeline chart and when this chart is active, you chose Timeline - Perspectives - Add a set. Then you need to navigate to where you placed the perspective Event files you downloaded from Liesterpro (should be in Home/Library/Application Support/Reunion​/Perspective events folder​.) This works for me.

      Sidebar.
      Click Sidebar "Ages". Below the sidebar is a calendar symbol. Click this and a list of perspective events should come up- but does not. Anyone know why?

        See that you live in Norway. Are you using the English R14 or perhaps with the Norwegian.lproj ? ?
        After selecting one or more items in the list, they are entered between the other 'Ages' events.

          Yes, I live in Norway and am using Reunion with Norwegian menues. But I am afraid I have no idea what you are talking about with English R14 or Norwegian.lproj. Sorry.
          My problem is that when I display "Ages" and click on the calendar symbol below the sidepanel, the field which pops up is empty. This is the field where, according to the manual, I should be able to pick a perspective event from. Why do I not see them when I have downloaded all of them and placed them in the correct folder on my Mac. I can see them when I make a timeline graph.

            My question was to identify the reason of your problem, it could be the Norwegian language module.
            In System Prefs - Language & Region - you have the possibility to change the language temporarly.
            Change language.jpg Popup Ages.jpg If this too difficult for you, contact the Norwegian localiser.

              When I bring up the "On this Date" and select US Census, it does not display anything earlier than 1850. Any help would be appreciated.

                I am seeing an issue as well and will pass a note onto our engineering staff to check into fixing. Thanks for reporting what you're seeing
