U: add unknown role
==U==
;<span id="unknown">Unknown</span>: (''[[#event_role|event role]]'') A placeholder for when the [[#role|role]] of a participant in an [[#event|Event]] has not yet been defined. Gramps sets an appropriate default Role as each new Event type is created. But when a new participant is associated with an existing Event via Share or drag'n'drop, the Role isn't as predictable. In such a case, an Unknown placeholder is inserted. Any Unknown [[#event_role|Event Role]] type causes a variety of reporting problems and should be manually replaced as soon as is practical.
 
==V==
;<span id="view">View</span>: ''([[Gramps_{{version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window|graphical user interface terminology]])'' - a '''View''' is a Gramps-specific name for the Window layouts presenting information in a structured and predictable manner. Layouts are in table, outline or graphical formats; depending on the preferred way to represent how the data elements relate to on another. <br />Gramps divides and organizes the information about each [[#primary_object|Primary Object]] into a series of Categories, each with their own View. Each of the Category Views displays a smaller, more digestible portion of the total information that comprises a Genealogical Tree. View data may be further subdivided with tabbed pages of layouts.
