container 6.0.1

A and B, have a kid C. C marries D and have a kid F.  
C divorces D, remarries Z.

Now A and B have two entries of C. Is this expected?

Nope. Can you show a screen grab illustrating the problem?

What do you expect? How should this be visualized? Showing C two times is a good solution.

In [Graph View](https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Addon:Graph_View) addon view, that appears as:

In the [FamilyTreeView](https://github.com/ztlxltl/FamilyTreeView/blob/main/README.md) experimental addon view, it appears as:

Note, the Home Person (in green is A), the gender of the children (both in orange) was “unknown”

However, if child F is also added as a stepchild in the 2nd marriage, they would appear twice in FTV.

And Graph View does:

Which graph report did you use to produce this chart?

Looks like Gramps Web’s relationships graph. I also have this occur on Gramps Web

Yes, this is the Gramps Web forum category.

Did you add the child to both families? If yes, that’s expected behaviour. The relationship intentionally shows people twice in some cases. See e.g. here for a similar discussion:

> **[Relationship Graph duplicates on multiple relationships · gramps-project...](https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps-web/discussions/627)**
>
> Hi I'm seeing a bug in the relationship graph when a person has had multiple "families". In this case, my brother Kasper has had a child in a previous relationship, before marrying his current wife...

So trying to reply to all,

some info about “my” gramps:

Gramps 6.0.1  
Gramps Web API 3.0.0  
Gramps Web Frontend 25.5.1  
Gramps QL 0.4.0  
Sifts 1.0.0  
locale: en  
multi-tree: false  
task queue: true  
OCR: true  
chat: false

@DavidMStraub so this is intended, at least from what I’ve understood.

@DaveSch , I’ve used the “Relationship Graph”.

@hartenthaler something like @emyoulation has.

@emyoulation I’m farely new to gramps and it’s feature, but the behaviour you are showing is something I would expect, at least it makes more sense to me.  
Since in my view there no way of telling that it’s a duplication, yes it would be weird for two kids with the same name but…  
Is it possible for me to add these “add ons”?

And thanks to all that replied, thanks for the help

The screenshot was from Gramps Desktop, so it was off topic for this thread.
