Place Completion Tool
The place completion tool enables you to work on a selection of your places. It can look up latitude and longitude, and you can set county, parish, state, ... data on a group of places with one click.

Family Lines
What does it do?
- The family lines plugin produces .dot (Graphviz) files which can then be used to produce .gif, .png, .pdf, and many other formats. You give it a list of people of interest, and it will output only people directly related to the people of interest. For example, place your grandparents as people of interest, and select the option to follow both ancestors and children.
