Gramps query

Legg inn av Neil Hindry » 25 jul 2007 12:49:46

I wonder if you can help me.
I have recently got interested in genealogy and I am researching my family
tree.

I have entered the details of the family members I have discovered so far
into Gramps. Now I want to print a complete family tree, and when I say a
family tree I mean the type that is traditionally known as a family tree
going from top to bottom.

However, whenever I select 'Pedigree' at the left-hand side of the screen
I only get part of the tree; I think it says in the help that it displays
up to 5 generations, also it displays it left to right.

I have not been able to find out how I can view & print the complete
family tree from top to bottom. Is what I want possible in Gramps?

Can anyone please tell me how I can view/print the whole of my family tree
(going from top to bottom) in Gramps?

For information I am using Gramps version 2.2.8-0.SVN in Ubuntu.

I hope you can help me.

I appreciate any help or information given.

Thanks!

I think what you're wanting to print is commonly called a 'drop line'
chart. That is, one in which cousins, siblings, aunt, uncles etc. are all
printed. Gramps can't generate those, I'm afraid. The closest is the
"Relationship Graph" from the "Reports" menu under the "Code Generators"
item. You may have to install the Graphviz package from the Ubuntu
repositories to be able to view the o/p Gramps generates.

The Pedigree chart you mentioned is just that. Since pedigree is
concerned with direct lines of ascent/descent, other people (siblings,
etc.) are ignored.

Finally, there is a Gramps users mailing list, if you're interested in
joining it. Sign up here;
