[Gramps-users] Feature Request: Adding Witnesses

[Doug <li...@m-...>]

Currently, to add a witness who is in the database, I need to know their ID before going to that window. To add a witness who is not, but should be, in the database, I need to add them to the database, take note of their ID number and then go to the witness tab and enter them.

Can we please have the same functionality with witnesses as we do when adding children/parents/spouses?

If we check the <Person is in database> spot, we should have a window pop up (or the <person> field on the witness tab should shift to a drop down field and a <new> button should be ungreyed beside it). We can then choose from a list of everyone (or every reasonable possibility) or add a new person to the database.
