I'm having trouble understanding how I use and manually set links in myFamily Tree, so that the paternal, maternal, and both tabs are used.
At first I thought that all "links" that I made would automatically be allocated to one of the tabs. For instance, I would have thought all my male x-matches would be designated "maternal" (because I am also male). Or my full-siblings would be determined to be "both" (but instead they are allocated to "maternal")
But, it appears that this is not the case (and in fact the automatic allocation seems problematic). So, I had hoped to do this manually.
I've read and reread the info in the Learning Center... particularly: https://www.familytreedna.com/learn/...matching-tool/ But, no "linking buttons" are displayed in myFamily Tree -- so there is no way for me to manually set the tab allocation.
Is the information in the learning center no longer valid? Why don't I see the linking buttons? Is there a way to manually select paternal, maternal or both settings?
