Re: [Gramps-users] What am I doing wrong with filter

[Benny M. <ben...@gm...>]

 The filter looks good, but I see that the IsDescendantOfFilterMatch has
some logical errors (??) and is not inclusive, so the people who are in the
filter you match do not show in the result under some circumstances. This
could explain some things, but you would have some output.

Can you create a filter that has this behaiviour on the example database
distributed with GRAMPS and submit a bug entry?

In the meantime, you could open up the file
 Filters/Rules/Person/_IsDescendantOfFilterMatch.py
and before line 74 filt.reset() add the line
print self.map

to see if theere is some output.
