Min. Confidence level in citations filter

Help

(Gramps 5.1.3 @win10)

Where I can change the minimum confidence level used by default for filtering citations?

I would prefer to have the very low level by default in the place of the normal level.

(I think that question had already asked but I can’t find it nor the answer)

Thanks

In program file

\gramps\gui\filters\sidebar\_citationsidebarfilter.py

at line 72

self.filter_conf.set_active(Citation.CONF_NORMAL)

The options are:

Citation.CONF_VERY_HIGH
Citation.CONF_HIGH
Citation.CONF_NORMAL
Citation.CONF_LOW
Citation.CONF_VERY_LOW

It could be useful to have a preference option for that.
This option could be used when we create a citation.
If you think it is important, make a feature request.

I don’t ever do that. Is it like opening a bug in Mantis?

Thanks for that code.

Yes. There are 2 ‘projects’ in the MantisBT tool: ‘Gramps’ for bug reports; and ‘Feature Requests’. (Or 3, if you choose ‘All Projects’.)

If you are set to ‘All Projects’ when you choose the ‘Report Issue’, then MantisBT will ask you to choose a project before showing the data entry form.
