"Add Unconnected Person" option in additional locations
"Add Unconnected Person" option in additional locations
Assuming the "Add Unconnected Person" option placement was not intended to hide its availability, there are at least two natural points where adding an unconnected person exists. Adding the option to these points would be easier to use.
1) In the "Source Linker" window, when the left "Focus Person" is an unconnected person:
Having the "Add Unconnected Person" option in the right "Change Focus Person" popup would be natural. If the "Add Unconnected Person" option is selected allow the information from the left "Focus Person" to auto populate the fields in the "Add Unconnected Person" popup.
2) When an unconnected person is the "Focus Person" in the "View Record" window, and the "ATTACH TO FAMILY TREE" button is selected:
Having the "Add Unconnected Person" option in the "Find a Match in Family Tree" popup (perhaps as an additional tab) would be natural. Allow information from the "View Record" window focus person to auto populate the fields in the "Add Unconnected Person" popup.

Yeah, right now I just add them as a member of the family and then immediately disconnect them. The workflow for manually adding an unconnected person is just absurd: navigate away from the Source Linker, select the Add Unconnected option from the Recents menu and add a name, copy the ID, navigate back to the Source Linker, change the left column target to the unconnected person, select Change Focus and past the ID into the right, then link? Who ever thought that was reasonable?
