Re: [Gramps-users] remove estimated

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

Hi Bernard.

Option 1: create a filter if that is possible to see the estimated dates. I
don't think such a filter exists right now, but it would be interesting
(filter on the quality of a date, estimated, about, range, ....). So
somebody would have to code it then ... Then you still have to edit
everything ==> slow

Option 2: export to .gramps xml format, uncompress the file, and extract the
xml text file in the .gramps file. Open that file with a text editor like
gedit/kate. Now, search on the text string:

 quality="estimated"

You will find all dates with estimated. Find and replace of the above with
nothing will change them.
Be carefull not to delete to much. This is the fastest edit you can do. When
finished, import the xml file in an empty grdb file.
