There is a gallery for every person in the database. That´s clear.
But there is also a gallery for every event. Should I, for example, add the death certificate to this gallery for the event of death? But then it will not be displayed in the people gallery. So it is somewhat hidden.
How should I proceed? Put all the images in the people gallery or sort them into the gallery for the event there?
Win11/Gramps 5.2.3
I only add items to the gallery relevant to the image. Photo of a person to the person’s gallery, a birth certificate to the citation’s gallery, etc.
That being said, my most used output report for a cousin, etc is the NarrWeb which will display an image wherever found on its appropriate page. Not every report does this. Images attached to a citation will often not be included in most reports.
You need to evaluate which (if any) reports you use, which images display in that report, and act accordingly.
@Nick-Hall has suggested elsewhere that he will build an efficient Gramplet that drills down all the secondary objects (and tertiary, and so on) to show a list of all the Citations buried in the branch hierarchy attached to a primary object.
With that example, a Gallery that does the same with Media object should be adaptable. (And for Sources, Repositories, Places, Notes, Events, or People. Families might be more complex.)
There is the Deep Gallery gramplet by @ukulelehans . It finds all gallery items for the person. The item in the gallery of the citation, attached to a person’s event.
Until just now, realized it was never added into the Gramps addon lists.
That’s because it is registered as a 5.1 version gramplet and you are using the 5.2.3 version of Gramps.
It is not a guarantee that changing the gramps_target_version= in the Gramps Plugin Registration (.gpr.py) file will make a plug-in work. (Each version of Gramps has to adapt to changes in the current version of Python, Gtk and other support libraries.) But tweaking the value is worth trying.
Try tweaking line 7 in the deepgallery.gpr.py file first.
It is a simple text file and you only need to change 1 character. If the tweak does not work, this will not break your tree. (That safety margin is because Deep Gallery only displays data. If the gramplet edited the tree, I’d be more careful.)
