I propose to develop an exceptionally powerful Gramps add-on for analyzing family connections that would generate a text file in DOT format. Its essence is that, besides the main family connections like father, mother, and spouse, it will also contain other links interconnected by the Gramps program…

You are using Tags where I would use Attributes. Tags are for temporary use, Attributes are for permanent use. The Regions are unlikely to change and are probably better attributes than Tags. I often use Tags to simplify and accelerate repeated filtering. Obviously, each Rule in a custom filter …

That sounds interesting. How is this different from the relationship graph in Gramps? The relationship graph produces a dot file. It can be used with a filter, which is a very flexible way of selecting people to include in the chart. I appears that a filter could be used to select the cases in your…

You’re correct, it seems that the relationship graph is almost what I need. I was able to export the data to dot (size around 1 MB). However, viewing the file or its conversion to png works incorrectly. Here are the steps I took: For file viewing on Ubuntu, I installed xdot: sudo apt install xdot I…

One more question. I see, people from Associations dont have arrows on the graph. Is it possible to fix this? [Screenshot from 2023-09-15 19-38-34] [Screenshot from 2023-09-15 19-40-44]

So, finally I see 2 problems: On the graph, associative individuals are not represented with arrows. The graph is disproportionately stretched vertically, even though there’s sufficient space to position the individuals closer together. [Screenshot from 2023-09-15 20-06-40]

@emyoulation the problem 2 is solved with changing the size attribute: [Screenshot from 2023-09-15 21-19-43] But the problem 1 is still actual. Can anybody add ability to draw dashed arrows between person and Associations? This is very important because I can not do it manually inside the dot fil…

Including People with “Associated” relationships in addition to Family relationship in the Relationship Graph definitely would require an enhancement.

[image] Urchello: The graph is disproportionately stretched vertically, Graphviz generally tries to fill the available space. For larger charts, I find it works better if the graph direction is set to horizontal (in the graph layout tab).

@emyoulation @hewettp About the enhancement I’ve created a separate task here https://gramps.discourse.group/t/include-people-with-associated-relationships-to-relationship-graph/4180 . Hope anybody can implement this update. Thank you guys for your time today! Have a nice day!
