New FamilyTreeView Addon (Thread 2)

Since the last major update (switching to Gramps 6.0), the following improvements have been implemented (as of v0.1.125):

  • Custom badges based on filters (requested by @Brinycoolie here):
    Using the flexible filter feature in Gramps, you can now create your own badges. In the config window, you can select the filters whose matches should get a badge in the tree. You can set a short text (e.g. short word, symbol or emoji), a text and a background color for the badge.


    As you can see, the sidebar filter is included in the list. I now recommend this instead of the “filter result” badge from the example badges addon, since the new implementation is much faster. I also created two custom filters here: a person filter that matches all persons whose birth event does not have a high confidence source, and a family filter that matches all families whose marriage event’s place is in the US.

    I’m curious to see how you will use this feature with complex/nested filters to highlight exactly those persons/families that are relevant to you in your current research phase.

  • @TJB’s PR was merged that adds the spouse’s name to family events in the timeline. Thank you very much!

  • The GitHub repo now has 14 stars. It’s great to know that many people like my addon and find it useful!
