=== The Pedigree list ===
Clicking the {{man button|Display pedigrees}} button opens a tabbed window with ahnenlist numbered list format of an ahnentafel numbering system pedigree. The other tab contains the ahnenlist similarly numbered pedigree of the Active Person's spouse(s)but starting with the spouse in the #1 spot for their list. These numbers Each list will only show a person '''''once''''', regardless of how much pedigree collapse exists for the Person in the #1 spot on that pedigree.
Clicking the {{man button|Copy}} button copies the text to the OS clipboard.
An example of Piatt's pedigree is shown in Figure 3. You will notice that the the lines for ancestors 152 and 153 are marked as being the same as ancestors 68 and 69 (Edward Christiansen and Elizabeth Thomas). This is where there is pedigree collapse for Piatt. The rest of the list will crop out the ancestors of 152 and 153 because they too are duplicated.
But which children were the siblings? Just divide the ancestor number by 2 to get the number of their child. Half of 152 is 76 (Nathanial Christiansen) and half of 68 is 34 (off-screen in Figure 3 but this is Joseph Christiansen). You can use this method in any Ahnentafel Numbering System. You can also use [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahnentafel#Deductive_reckoning "deductive reckoning"] determine their exact relationship to the #1 person by their number.
