Is this information available w/out having to manually count from various screens?
Create a group of “direct descendants only” and it will give a count.

When I enter the earliest individual and ask for a “direct Descendant” list going out 8 generations I get NONE. I’m trying to generate a LIST. And it appears that the software is looking for an “endpoint” person to get a direct line from the progenitor to that one individual. I’m trying to get a total number of “direct” descendants associated w/ the original earliest couple/
Your best bet is to create a Group as recommended above, this will get you a count of direct line descendants, Then create a a custom report to get a list of those people. I used a selection of the progenitor for the line and the selection criteria of Direct Descendants with a sort on Birth Date and then Given Name to get them in a desired order.
