Introduction to Charts
This version of Genealogy Pro support the horizontal format
of two basic chart types. These are
1. Descendant Charts (Family charts).
These start with a family and link the children, and their
children's children and so on.
An example of a horizontal Descendant Chart (Family
Chart)
An example of a vertical Descendant Chart (Family
Chart)
2. Ancestor Charts (Direct Line Charts or Pedigree Charts).
These start with an individual and link the parents, grandparents,
and so on.
An example of a vertical ancestor chart.
A chart is created by choosing Chart->New Chart menu. A
focus individual for the chart must first be selected - implicit
through a current family window, or a selected individual in the
individual list or a selection of an individual in another chart.
The information in a chart is directly linked to the database.
For example, changing a name in a chart will alter the name in
the database.
Double clicking the name of a person in the chart will bring
up a family window for that individual.
One convenient and visual method of entering data into the
database is to start with the oldest ancestor in a family chart.
Use the 'Add Son', 'Add Daughter' or 'Add Spouse' menu functions.
Click on the names to edit the data. Note that Shift clicking
?on a name or date is a quick edit method bypassing the family
window.
