How to make a relationship chart (for either ancestors, descendants, ...) with Gramps 5.x. and the [[Gramps_{{Version manualman version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_5#Relationship_Graph|Relationship graph report]].[[File:RelationshipChartDescendants-example-41.png|left|thumb|300px|תרשים לדוגמה]]
== Before you start ==
In Gramps you can define filters to make a selection of individuals, see [[Example_filters| Examples of filters]]. In the relationship chart all custom person filters you made will be available, as well as the standard descendants and ancestors filters. These last start from the active person.
{{man tip|Tip|You can add [[Step_relationships|stepchildren]] to a family by setting the ''Relationship to Mother'' (or Father) for the child to ''stepchild'' in the [[Gramps_{{Version manualman version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Child_Reference_Editor|Child Reference Editor]]. The other parent's Relationship should remain set to ''Birth''. In doing so, these children will become part of a descendant report without the need to create a custom filter to include them.}}
=== How many people ?===
*If you have a bad resolution of png, eg unreadable text, this is probably because you have set a paper size which is to small. See [[Howto:_Make_a_relationship_chart#Example_1-A:_a_descendant_chart|Example 1-A]]: set the papersize of number of pages to a high number, but select in '''GraphViz Options''', in ''Aspect ratio'': <tt>Fill the given area</tt>, or use <tt>Compress to minimal size</tt>
{{man warn|Reports and custom IDs|After a GEDCOM import, your database can use some non-standard IDs (ie. 123I or 456U not set on {{man menu|Edit --> Preferences --> ID Formats}}). If generated reports do not properly display data, then try [[Gramps_{{Version manualman version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Tools#Reorder_Gramps_ID|Reorder Gramps IDs tool]] ({{man menu|Tools->Family Tree Processing->Reorder Gramps IDs}}).}}
== Additional things to try ==
If you examine the dot specifications, you will note that much more can be done with GraphViz output. If you have programming skills you can add some functionality:
* Improved text in the boxes: what text and how to organize it?
* Coloring. See the [[Gramps_{{Version manualman version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_5#Family_Lines_Graph|Family Lines Graph]]: for a color per family, for specific relations, for the central person, ...
