VisualizeVisualizar thelas relationshipsrelaciones betweenentre individualsindividuos

TheEl TreeÁrbol displaysmuestra thelos ancestorsantepasados andy thelos descendantsdescendientes ofde un individuo raíz.

Como ya se mencionó anteriormente, los otros individuos no serán visibles. Por lo tanto, su primera opción es elegir a rootesta individual.

Once chosen, there are several ways to change the root individual.

• The Change Root Entity button on the toolbar
• The Bookmark button in the toolbar, provided you have defined bookmarks beforehand
• A double-click on the box of the chosen entity in the dynamic tree view
• A double-click on the chosen entity in the entity table or the Gedcom editor
• The context menu and select "Make root in the dynamic tree".

As soon as a new root is defined, the displayed tree changes and redraws the corresponding ancestors and descendants.

The root entity also becomes the selected entity until another entity is selected.

In order to see or hide elements to optimize the presentation of your tree, use the buttons of the toolbar.

You can also customize the way the tree is displayed and use styles. Refer to the customization section below.

Once the tree looks the way you want, you can print it or make a screenshot of it to keep an image of it.

It is also possible to export the visible individuals to a new Gedcom independent file. To export a branch of the tree, make sure then that only the corresponding branch is unfolded and visible. Then refer to the save as function for the extraction details.

 

Navigate in the genealogy

From the root individual, you can navigate through family relationships within the ancestors of the root entity, or within the descendants and their spouses.

In general, navigation within tree entities is done using the mouse.

• Press and hold the mouse anywhere on the tree to move it around until you see the desired individuals
• A double-click on the box of an entity to make it the new root entity, which then makes you see its ancestors and descendants.
• A single click on an entity's box to select it and display its information in the other views and in particular in the editors.

To navigate within the ancestors of an ancestors of thee root individual, or the descendants of a descendant of the root individual, you do not need to redraw the tree with another root.

You will have to redraw the tree if you want to see the descendants of an ancestor, or the ancestors of a descendant.

For example, to see the brothers and sisters of an individual, set the root individual to their father or any of their ancestors.

Whatever the way of operating, the selection of an individual or a family in the dynamic tree is instantaneously reflected in the other windows.

Selecting an entity does not modify the choice of the root, and therefore has no effect on the structure of the displayed tree.

The root entity is in the brown box. If the brown box is not visible, it is probably because it is also the selected individual. There are indeed two situations resulting in the selected individual and the root individual being the same: it is when the root is selected, or when the selected individual is double-clicked.

 

Build the tree

The dynamic tree view can also be used as a sort of editor, to add or remove relationships and the corresponding individuals and families.

You can build a tree visually directly from the dynamic tree using the context menu, with a right-click on the individual from which you want to add an entity, or which you would like to remove.

Creation of an additional individual

In the Dynamic Tree view, the creation of an individual or a family is done by means of the context menu which opens with a right click on the box of an entity chosen as reference.

Here, you can see the context menu from the individual Jacqueline Bouvier :

• To create or add an individual related to Jacqueline Bouvier, choose the action Add another individual or a family, then, in the sub-menu that is displayed, choose one of the desired actions Add a family of parents, Add a brother, etc.).
• You can also directly add other categories of entity with the action Add a media, a note, a source, etc.
• For the creation of an entity without any link with this reference entity, choose the action Create a global entity

When adding an entity, Ancestris asks you via, the following window, to confirm whether you want to create a new entity or link an existing one. Example here to add a brother, as indicated in the last sentence:

In case of a new entry, Ancestris will put you in the default editor on a new individual to start entering its description.

You enter the corresponding information, validate it, and the individual is then added in the tree, provided that the added individual is an ancestor a descendant of the root individual. Otherwise, it has been created but does not appear.

 

Modification of an individual or a family information

The modification of an individual is either done by selecting on it and then using the editor if one is already open, or else by opening the context menu and chose Edit/Modify.

Make your modifications. They will appear immediately after your validation, as long as they are part of the information displayed in the boxes.

 

Deleting an individual or a family

Deleting an individual or family is done through the Context Menu.

Choosing the Delete the selected properties action then confirm your choice.

If the deletion is confirmed, the tree updates its structure immediately.

This can significantly change the tree display if the selected entity was the root or the middle of a branch.

If the root individual is deleted, the tree disappears completely.

If an individual in a branch is deleted, the whole end of the branch disappears.

 

Customization

Customization of the tree can be done using two buttons in the toolbar:

• Change display: changes the Blueprint which is what is displayed inside the boxes
• Configure View:   changes the structure of the tree, the colors of the borders and the size of boxes. You can also save your display settings in your own style.

Here is the Configure View window.

Make your modifications in the various tabs.  

The tree is modified instantly.

 

Main Tab

This tab allows you to change navigation settings and display style.

Navigation

• Automatically center view on selected entity: forces the tree to position the selected entity at the center of the display as soon as one is selected.
• Behaviour on a double-click: defines the action to be performed when double-clicking on an entity:
  • None
  • Center
  • Set root (default choice)
• Maximum generations around root: displays only the corresponding number of generations. When changing this parameter, the tree changes immediately, and folds or unfolds branches so respect that constraint. The maximum is 99 generations on either side of the root.
• Show key information on each entity: displays a tooltip window when hovering over an entity with the mouse. This window includes basic information about the entity, in case too little information is displayed in the boxes, or if this information in the box is not visible enough.

Style

Three styles are predefined by default, and a fourth allows you to define your own.

When you choose a style, the tree changes immediately.

To create your own style, select My Style and then go to set the blueprint, the colors and sizes you want. These will be stored as your style.

•   

Bookmarks tab

The Bookmarks tab is used to manage bookmarks: order and deletion.

It consists of the list of currently saved bookmarks, under which there are three buttons: Up, Down and Delete.

The order of the bookmarks in this list is an exact reflection of the order in which the bookmarks appear in the Bookmark button on the toolbar. To change this order, select the bookmark to be moved from the list, and use the Up and Down buttons.

To delete a bookmark, select it and then click on the Delete button.

This tab does not allow you to create or rename a bookmark. To create a bookmark, see the Bookmark Button paragraph. To rename a bookmark, you must first delete it, then create another one from the same entity and with the appropriate name.

 

Colors tab

This tab customizes the colors of the connectors between boxes, the borders,   and the background of the tree.

Zone of choice of the element to be colored

The upper area of the Colors tab lists the elements in the tree view whose color can be changed, each line ending with a square of the currently selected color for that element.

When one of the above items is selected with a mouse click, its color can be changed in the lower area.

Color Selection Area

The lower area of the Colors tab itself contains a number of tabs that are different ways to choose colors.

Choose the color you want, this will update the small square in the element in the upper area.

Tuning tab

This tab allows you to choose the font and its size, a display modes, and the size of the boxes.

Fonts

• The Font menu allows you to select the type of font from a drop-down list.
• The Font zise is changed using the entry field on the right.

Display

• Use angled connectors: turns the filiation links between the boxes into broken or angled lines, rather than straight lines.
• Union symbol: displays a double ring between the two individuals making up a family.
• Enable antialiasing: produces a smoothing of the pixel display for images.

Boxes

• The Boxes area allows you to choose the shape and size of boxes for individuals and families.
