Hey, I made a new Gramplet (addon) for my own personal use but thought others may find it useful, so I made a couple of PRs for it. It’s called DNA Matches and is supposed to complement the existing DNA Segment Map addon. It’s for the latest stable Gramps version, 5.1.6 (and I’m on Windows 11, but h…

When I create an Association, I share the Citation. So I have exactly 1 Citation for all GEDmatch matches, 1 for FTDNA, … If this is what others do, then we could limit the view of the DNA Segment Map to only a specific source. Thoughts on whether this has value?

How would you adapt the Legend/ColorKey if there were multiple Sources? (each for a different service) Users would probably want the rows grouped in the list. Maybe use the same color but different fill patterns for each secondary source?

Yes, it works fine in gramps 6.0

Can someone please explain to me how to use the DNA Match Gramplet? I’ve installed the gramplet in the People view. How and for whom do I enter the DNA data? I probably have to start with the person who took the DNA test, e.g., on MyHeritage. Then I have to create an attribute called DNA. Then do…
