just starting a family tree for Hans Nowak (Künstler), an artist-painter from Braunschweig/Edemissen-Voigtholz. Working for his biography (see gehlig-bs.de or hans-nowak.de or Wikipedia, if you want to see or read about him).
After 2 Days I can export e relationship-Tree as PDF, but without implementation of birth-/death-/marriage-dates. The tree mostly seems to be just fine… Personal dates in databases are estimated without faults.
Two Things I want to fix:
For some fields (p.Ex. couples of a member of some sisters/brothers) I want another sortation. What I can see in the PDF “…_rel_graphviz.pdf” displays couples of a brother or sister of a family between the other Brothers/Sisters - I want them at the End of the line of fields, at the edges. That mostly needs only a changement between the Couples. Also in some cases I want to sort sisters/brothers in biographical order
Marriages are displayed as little egg-shaped fields, but empty. I want in these fields the date of marriage.
In one case 2 marriages are displayed the older one right of the newer one (standing left. So 1 want to set Numbers 1-2-3 to the Arrows of relationship
In the rectangular Fields with names of the family-tree I want to display Dates of birth/death under the name-line.
Planning to study the manual and to read in “how to display the family tree”, but seems to need more time, as I can take or find in time.
So I hope, that someone of you knows how to work on realization of my wishes.
Marriage data must be integrated into the “families” – it’s not enough when integrated at persons.
Displaying the data of birth, death, marriage could be switched on in the dialog before creating the PDF – also the date format.
The sorting of persons in the row is not time-correct, but alphabetical – therefore I am looking for management options. But now I am satisfied with the result – only through learning by doing! And this after three half-days first working with Gramps. Great program…
Once added, select Refresh and go to the Addons tab and search for FamilyTreeView (one word). You can then install it. As a View, you will need to restart Gramps for it to become available. It will be added to the Charts navigation options.
The view is highly configurable using the Configure the Active View icon All views have this option. Once you get the desired results the view can be printed or exported to a SVG file.
@Bahnfried NB If you are using Windows, don’t bother trying to print the FTV view. I can’t remember the details but I’m fairly sure it doesn’t work. Use the export to SVG option and then open the SVG file in a suitable application and print from there.
Umm, I can’t check right now but I don’t think that works either. I think it’s something to do with not being able to control the page size and the output being truncated rather than being spread over multiple pages.
I just did a test using the Microsoft Print to PDF option for the printer. My test was wide and only the far left people were printed to the PDF. Maybe another Print to PDF driver would work but truthfully, I do not have the time nor interest to investigate.
The SVG export/download appears the only viable option at this time.
