Is there a way to do a Text Report like the Detailed Descendant Report that picks up everyone in the database? The Detailed Descendant Report requires a "Home Person" be selected and then only picks up descendants of that person. -- Dave Researching Surnames Marshall, Broemsen, Blaetner, Pugh, Schlicher, Kennedy, Harmison Located in Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Pennsylvania and ???

Before I bother the programmers by raising a bug report... I use LibreOffice Writer as my default viewer. First The report produced has Styles created by Gramps to control the formatting of the different sections of the report. Included is a "DDR-NoteHeader" Style but there is no corresponding "DDR-NoteDetails" Style. The Notes use the "DDR-Entry" Style. I would like a "DDR-NoteDetails" Style output by Gramps. Now to stop everyone saying, Yes but you can pre-format Notes. I agree, but if you do, the formatting does not survive a SAVE and REOPEN. Then the Notes revert to "DDR-Entry" Style. This may be a problem with LibreOffice Writer. Second Is it possible to include Widows and Orphans Controls and 'Keep this (header) style with the next paragraph', within the Styles output by Gramps. I can believe that in order to accommodate the various Word Processors that a reduced Style SET is required. Does anyone know if that is the case ? George Baynes |

Create a template in LO with the formats you want for each paragraph style, including e.g. the widow & orphan settings you refer to. Easiest way to do this is to use a test DDR from a LARGE and complicated family, which is more likely to contain practically every output type somewhere within it. It is tedious the first time, but well worth the effort. Once you have formatted all para types [make a list] to your satisfaction [fonts, linespacing, indents, widow/orphan settings, keep-with-next, ... everything...], save the DDR, then delete all the text within in it [you will be left with a single blank paragraph mark, plus headers & footers if you want], then save it as a template with a distinctive [preferably time-stamped] name, then import that template back into LO. Taming templates in LO does take considerable effort! Took me weeks of iterative work and swearing to begin with, to get the output just how I wanted it [and testing compromises of font size to suit oldies with failing eyesight!], but that for me was now years ago and I can completely reformat a new DDR for a very large family in just moments! When you open a new .odt version of a DDR extracted from gramps, you go [varies a bit according to which version of LO you are on] to manage styles, then select "Load styles" [usually a drop-down top-right in the dialog], select your template, including at least the setting 'overwrite'. If your template also set up page margins & headers & footers, you can apply that too by including the setting 'pages'. When you click OK the report has all the formatting applied from your template, and once you save the .odt it stays that way, so it is more-or-less a once-per-extract-version task. There are still likely to be some eccentricities in the formatting, as there are inconsistencies in the way the DDR and other gramps reports assemble database components and tag them with styles. I am part-way through an exhaustive check of the various text reports in the hope I can eventually persuade the devs to eliminate some of these strange and unnecessary inconsistencies, but the arrival of v5, and the fact my laptop appears to be finally dying, has for the moment diverted me onto other more pressing and delicate tasks... cheers, Adrian On 2018-08-17 00:46, george via Gramps-users wrote: > Before I bother the programmers by raising a bug report... > > I use LibreOffice Writer as my default viewer. > > First > > The report produced has Styles created by Gramps to control the > formatting of the different sections of the report.

Thanks for the reply , Adrian. I had thought of using a template but could see no way of getting Gramps to use it. You use the template as a store of Styles which can be imported into the output file of Gramps. As a work around it will work but, call me lazy, but it seems like too much work. I would still have to go through the file finding each Notes section to set the new style.

Do you have any shared events with reference notes or attributes? I've noticed what I believe to be a bug with reports and shared events that has affected several reports for me in 5.0.0, including both Detailed Descendant and Detailed Ancestral Reports and web reports. The only events affected for me so far are census events created with the Forms add-on (but that is still over 2000 events and growing almost daily), but I've done some testing with a dummy database that confirms it occurs with any shared events that use Reference Information so I don't think it has anything to do with the Forms add-on. But it would be nice to know if anyone else has seen it.

Hi Allen Crider I have lots of shared events. I do not use the Notes, Attributes nor Gallery at the Events level. What kind of problem does it cause in the reports ? Is it just in v5.0 ? I do not use the forms to input census data. George Baynes On 17/08/18 03:21, J. Allen Crider wrote: > Do you have any shared events with reference notes or attributes?

Hi all, I think that should be possible, but not based on a single person, but a couple. Similar to a descendent tree, but just as list. There are several other genealogical programs which have this function included. examples here: http://www.math.clemson.edu/~simms/g/desc/ but as new user of Gramps with just a basic start knowledge I'm not able to help any further.

I made a mysql based program that listed all the data for every individual. That is, it was a snapshot - it listed their id#, name, dob, parents, children, and all the factoids. I keep individual "sheets" on each person and supplement them with copies of any reference material. I have not tried to print out the same thing yet in Gramps, but soon I would hope to. I used colors to help identify sections of data (ie a light green background to indicate medical information - ie died of a stroke). I stored the sheets in binders with plastic "protective" sleeves if there was more than just a single document. So maybe what we're getting at here is that we need a flexible way to format output for individual and family records. I've not delved into this (yet), but it would be nice (if it does not already exist) to be able to use "keywords" / fields to print labels and data in a consistent form.

I don't understand why it has to be that much extra work. One of my friends is using a Windows program (don't remember which program) that does what it calls (I Think) an Individual Report, which includes the Events, parents, spouses, and children of each person, notes and attached jpegs.

The Complete Individual Report of Gramps does the same. You open it from the plugins directory, set the options, and click run. Not all jpegs are there, only the default, you could do a feature request to add things. In version 3.2 it will be possible to group events nicely in the output report.

Hi, Benny. I looked at the Complete Individual Report on the online manual and forgot about it. I just when back and looked again at http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_3.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports#Complete_Individual_Report says it "provides individual summaries similar to that of the Individual Summary Report." but there is nothing saying what Individual Summary includes, so I probably just kept looking the first time. I just ran the Complete Individual Report and like what it does.....kinda sorta. It looks like it has all of the people sorted by the order in which they were entered into the database with no obvious way to sort them by surname and family except to save the report as a text file then manually sort each page. That would take forever with almost 600 people in the database. Benny Malengier wrote: > 2010/1/20 Dave Marshall <n8...@ra...>: > >> I don't understand why it has to be that much extra work.

This suggest two things that you can do to help: 1) Edit the Complete Individual Report wiki page to better reflect what it does and provide more detail so the next person will have a better clue. 2) Make a Feature Request at http://www.gramps-project.org/bugs/my_view_page.php with improvements, such as sorting by surname, birthdate, etc. You can post the feature request URL back here if you want, too, so that future generations can follow up on the results.

I have already filed the feature request. If I can figure out how to edit the wiki, I will do that.
