Hi, As a new user to gramps I have few questions. For now, I use gramps 0.8.1 (debian unstable). I will certainly upgrade. One of my questions is the following: what the way to make reports on: - all ancestors of a person, - all descendants of these ancestors, - include the two parents of all the previous persons. My goal is to run (some) reports on a familly. My data base contains my ancestors, and lot of other peoples because I maintain the data for my cousins. An example, I want to run report on my father's familly, ie I don't want to include my mother's familly. Why ? Because the reports are for my cousins from my father which are not interested in having data on my mother's ancestors, but my mother herself must be included in the report. Best regards, Sorry for my poor english, I'm a french people. Guilhem BONNEFILLE |

GRAMPS has the ability to allow you to add custom filters. You can build some up from some simple primitives or you can write a custom one in Python.

Good day, I backed up my genealogical files (Gramps 2.2.8 I believe) to an external USB hard drive on my Fedora 6 system. I then proceeded to perform a clean install of Fedora 7. I then installed the Gramps from the Fedora 7 repository. Copied my files back to their original location in my user space. Where upon I attempted to open the database with the Gramps 2.2.6 (I believe). Gramps reported that it could not open my database because it was and unexpected file type or format. So I obtained the most recent stable version of Gramps from sourceforge, installed it and tried again with the same results. Any help out there? I just did a bunch of updates to the database a few weeks ago and really would rather not have to go backe to an old backup copy. Any help would be most appreciated. Gayland |

In general, the grdb-files are not portable. It is very much recommended to export the grdb-file to a GRAMPS package (gpkg) before upgrading. The gpkg-files are portable and is to be imported into a fresh grdb-file whenever wanted. You could try this link to see if it helps you: http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Recover_corrupted_grdb Espen |

Is it possible you didn't put back the file associations for Gramps files when you reinstalled Gramps? You did say you did a clean install, so all previous file associations would be wiped out (regardless of if you're using GNOME, KDE, or something else). Can you open up your backup copy (assuming it's the same format file)?

Actually I'd copied my entire /home branch but had restored only the Genealogy folder into the same relative location as it'd had had in the FC6 installation, so any environment files that were contained at higher levels in the tree were not restored. Anyway, the db_dump and db_load solution suggested in the document Espen pointed me to seems to have taken care of the problem. Much appreciation for the quick and helpful responses.

Trying to migrate from Legacy under Windows to Gramps v3 under Ubuntu. In the past have kept Legacy as my definitive data source but with ever improving Gramps hope to transfer fully to Linux. Problems:- 1. How can I re-order the children of a marriage by birth dates? 2. Can I change the details of the standard place dataset from a US base to a UK base i.e. rather than have the fields as street, city, county, state, country change them to street, district, city, county, country? Legacy can be fully customised in this respect. I would further like to add an Ordnance Survey ref rather than Long. Lat. to specify the exact position of the place Howard |

I'm not sure (not being on the dev team), but I /think/ those terms are hard coded, making it tricky to implement what you want. I tend to ignore "State" and put District in the Street field, myself.

I You should see the place structure as levels, with parish the special one (being a level in a religeous setting). So the labels are the US labels, but translaters can just change them to the setting of their country. There is no en_UK language pack for GRAMPS though, so no street, district, city, county, country for you. You could easily make a en_UK language file with this for your system though, which means you keep the usa language file and only change these strings ( http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Translating_GRAMPS ) For the future we have on the features the ability to select the country and have the labels of the field update to the naming in that country. No developers are working on that at the moment though. > would further like to add an Ordnance Survey ref rather than Long. Lat. to > specify the exact position of the place Howard You mean this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_national_grid_reference_system Does not look usefull outside of the UK. Conversion to Lat/Long is difficult too, while that is important for future integration that is planned with openstreetmap/google maps. You have some options: 1/misuse the lat/long field to enter your data. Like that you have your data stored, but GRAMPS cannot use it for map display 2/Use a note or the internet tab (with page of http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk) to document your ordance survey. Do the effort to convert to lat/lon so you can use map data in GRAMPS 3/do feature request to add this as a field to GRAMPS. Obviously the field would need to be optionaly as only UK people have interest in it. A developer would have to code it, as it is only usefull for UK this might not be a high priority.Alternatively one could add attrributes tab to places, and store this as an attribute of the place.

The set can be renamed ( indeed all sets data can be changed in the same way ) and each field renamed. There are also user defined "spare" fields - which I use for Ordnance survey UK grid reference. The reason I like this is that it is based on kilometre square grids which allows a very simple calculation of distance between two points (although conversion to lat long co-ordinates is much more problematic for someone like myself who has no special expertise in maths). When I return from holiday I will play around with the suggestion of producing a en_UK.po I have read through the Translation pages of the wiki and will have a go. Regards Howard |

You need to open the family editor, so click on the edit button next to the family that has the children. In 3.0.0 you see arrows next to the view with children in family editor to reorder the children. Select a child, then press arrow up or down.

Hello Gramps users, I am seriously considering to migrate my genealogy from PAF 5.2 (Personnal Ancestral File) to Gramps (3.0.3.1, Windows). I am looking forward to be able to develop my custom reports. I noticed some data translation problems from PAF to Gramps (using a GEDCOM file): (note: I haven't read all the open issues in the bug tracker yet). 1. The notes in the multimedia objects are not imported (Gedcom tag OBJE.NOTE). Remark: A database check/repair immediately after the import raised "500 note objects were referenced, but not found" 2. The place data are not completely split into subdivisions. For example, in my base there are in the format: "street, parish, county, state, country". Is there a way to tell to the Gramps import what is the place format in the Gedcom file ? I tried to put: "1 PLAC 2 FORM Street,Church Parish,City,County,State,Country" in the HEADER, and then county, state and country are imported but not street and parish Then I looked in the code (_GedcomUtils.py, line 75): __field_map = { 'addr' : gen.lib.Location.set_street, 'subdivision' : gen.lib.Location.set_street, 'addr1' : gen.lib.Location.set_street, 'adr1' : gen.lib.Location.set_street, 'city' : gen.lib.Location.set_city, 'town' : gen.lib.Location.set_city, 'village' : gen.lib.Location.set_city, 'county' : gen.lib.Location.set_county, 'country' : gen.lib.Location.set_country, 'state' : gen.lib.Location.set_state, 'state/province': gen.lib.Location.set_state, 'region' : gen.lib.Location.set_state, 'province' : gen.lib.Location.set_state, 'area code' : gen.lib.Location.set_postal_code, } ==> This seems to be undocumented (even in the source code), and there is nothing for the parish. 3. Is there a way in Gramps to specify a preferred multimedia object for a person ? My objects are sorted chronologically and the first one is not necessarily the preferred one. 4. The blanks at the begining of Gedcom CONT fields are not imported. For example: 1 NOTE this note has 2 bullets: 2 CONT 1. first 2 CONT 2. second Is imported as: "this note has 2 bullets: 1. first 2. second" Instead of: "this note has 2 bullets: 1. first 2. second" 5. The notes in the sources are not imported (Gedcom tag SOUR.NOTE). Note: There are many other issues due to the PAF Gedcom non-compliances. Finally: ------------- - You have been very courageous to read until here. - Is the Gedcom import the right way to proceed ? Are there workarounds ? Thanks in advance for any response. Best regards, Pierre |
