 ===== Major or last occupation or residence =====
 One of Pedigree's strengths has been the support for multiple occurrences of occupations and residences spanning peoples' lives.  The downside has been the difficulty of showing only one of them, when a particular chart or tree has required this.
 The PediView Elton.ped database introduced an extra picture for occupation called major which allowed you to add a semicolon to occupation.title that you didn't want to be shown, with the picture
-if not  title contains ";" then title ", " end
+  if not  title contains ";" then title ", " end
 So that only titles without a semicolon would be shown.

 Define a new picture script name called 'final' for occupation and enter:
-if to absent then title
+  if to absent then title
-end
+  end
 Then use final(occupation) instead of your original picture in (say) Person detail picture script.

 The main script has been copied from the 'address' picture so that you could use this new 'final(residence)' picture in the Source letter report.  It is obviously wrong to have more than one address – particularly a previous address, in a letter!

 If you don't know a 'to' date, it can always be 'bef.' death.date or some other later date.

 I would suggest that you add a semicolon ; or exclamation ! to the end of notes on any event that you don't want included on the tree. (This is what I suggested for occupations for a major(occupation) picture.) Then in the new picture insert this line at the start:
+  if not notes contains ";" then
-if not notes contains ";" then
 and at the last line add end
 You may still get new lines for each extra occurrence of the event, unless you insert
+  separator=" "  {the default is new line}
-separator=" "  {the default is new line}
 before the normal picture for Person, or whatever picture name was used instead of normal(descendant) in your original F5 tree picture.
