Family Review glitches
I'm running into difficulties with entering Spanish names that include diacritical markings. This is easy to do in the indexing application where there is an icon that brings up a choice of marked letters. It would be good to have this feature available in Family Review - especially since we are working with Spanish records!
I am also running into a difficulty with linked fields that I would like to unlink. I don't find any instructions on doing this. What would you suggest?

Having big problems with linked names fields. I tell it to unlink, and I change the highlighting so they aren't on the same names, and it simply ignores the unlinking and puts the names on the supposed linked individual. This is especially a problem when the AI picks the wrong names to go together. For example, the AI highlights the Priest's surname and the Primary Person's (child being baptized) given name. No matter which order I attempt to separate them, the priest's and the primary's surnames are linked and highlighted together, and therefore change together. (I'm using Safari and a MacBook if that matters.)

@MargaretIda @Vee There is a solution for the Linked Names issue. When two names are linked, the changes you make to one name are reflected in the other. You should remove the linking before you submit the record. It isn't obvious which names are linked, so you have to watch for the Linked Name tag. If you miss it, you will be able to catch it during the final review if the names don't meet your expectations. The solution is to click on the Linked Name tag to display the Remove Link option and click on it. Then check in the final review that the problem has been solved. You should also correct highlighting problems associated with Linked Names. Correcting the highlights, however, may cause an "unknown error." See other threads for more details.
