Why are the name boxes red when I flow my people?

When you see red name boxes after flowing your people, this indicate names in overflow. This happens when the text box is too small to fit the full name. 
- Select the red name box.
- Resize the box by gently pulling the sides either sideways or downward until the full name appears.
- Once the box is large enough, the name will automatically load correctly.
- Tip: Always ensure your name boxes are wide enough to accommodate longer names (such as double-barreled surnames) before finalizing your layout.
