How to find the relationship between people

As related to the Home Person
Normally, you will have set yourself as the [[Gramps_Glossary#home_person|Home Person]]. That made Gramps describe records in terms of their relationship to you.
But while having a conversation with someone, you will want to temporarily swap Gramps to reporting from '''''their ''''' perspective instead. (I have a [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Bookmarks|bookmark]] for myself to make it easier to 'find myself' & and reset these ''temporary '' Home Person designations back to normal.)
Changing the perspective is typically done by [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Setting_Home_person|designating that Person as the Home Person]] and [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Setting_the_Active_Person|navigating the Active Person selection]] to the others as they pop up in discussion.
