[https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Import_from_another_genealogy_program#The_Master_Genealogist_.28TMG.29 TMG - Import from another genealogy program - Gramps wiki]
 
== TMG Database importer (reads Backup SQZ ) ==
 
Information related to TMG Import {{bug|7591}}
 
 
 
My attempt to create an importer for TMG
 
* [http://sourceforge.net/u/sam888/gramps/ci/tmgimporter/tree/ sam888/gramps/ci/tmgimporter/]
 
 
 
=== Prerequisites ===
 
* [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/dbf/ Ethan Furman's dbf-0.96.002] - First release to support python 2.x and 3.x - Allows reading/writing dBase, FoxPro, and Visual FoxPro .dbf files (including memos)
 
* [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/configparser configparser] - library brings the updated configparser from Python 3.5 to Python 2.6-3.5. (Instead of having custom code to read TMG's text files)
 
 
 
== Gramps Enhancements to match TMG behavior ==
 
Only if it makes sense. eg: no matching ability in Gramps.
 
 
 
=== TMG's View/Windows ===
 
* TMG Mainviews (=Details Window)
 
**(Yes) TMG Person View - Good overview of all Tags and events related to a person (No real equivalent without running a report!)
 
**(No ) TMG Family View - similar to a family group sheet (Simpler than Gramps Relationship Category View)
 
**(No ) TMG Tree View - Graphical: pedigree-type display (Simpler than Gramps Charts Category > Pedigree view)
 
 
 
* TMG's Additional windows
 
**(?) TMG Flags Window -
 
**( ) TMG Children Window -
 
**( ) TMG Siblings Window -
 
**(Yes) TMG Image Window - Displays Primary Exhibit only
 
**( ) TMG Associates Window -
 
**(?) TMG Focus Group Window - collects groups of people into list that you can save and reuse in filters.
 
 
 
* TMG Picklist (Searching)
 
**(Yes) TMG Search by TMG ID# - dialog <br>Possibly modify Gramps or have an additional Jump key to select an individual by TMG_ID#<br>{{bug|4970}} Showing TMG ID# in Gramps
 
**(?) TMG Simple Picklist
 
**(?) TMG Expanded Picklist
 
**(?) TMG Project Explorer - (Advanced)
 
 
 
* TMG Masterlist (Gramps individual views are basically these but open the whole time)
 
** TMG Master Source List (All sources recorded) -> (Can also access the "Source definition" screen)
 
** TMG Master Repository List (Where source found)
 
** TMG Master Place List (All places in Dataset/Project)
 
** TMG Master Event List (All events contained in tags)
 
** TMG Master Tag Type List (All Tag Types in alphabetical list)
 
** TMG Master Style List (All name & place styles)
 
 
 
* TMG Logs
 
**( ) TMG Research Log
 
**( ) TMG Exhibit Log
 
 
 
* TMG Other features
 
**(Yes) Accents (Ability to color a TMG tag/person that meets a condition)
 
 
 
*  TMG does not have these exactly but would be handy
 
**(###) Master People List - "TMG Picklist"'s above is almost equivalent.
 
**(###) Master Secrets List - All items that have some degree of privacy recorded against them would appear here.
 
*** In TMG Privacy record options include (See TMG User manual - "Excluding Information" pg:176):
 
**** (Yes) Exclusion Marker: this uses the "-"(Hyphen) entered in an entry field.<br> One "-"(Hyphen) hides the contents of the field from display (makes it invisible.<br> Two "--"(Double Hyphen) means to never print or export (Not sure if you can override).
 
**** (Yes) Sensitivity Brackets: this uses "{}"(Curly brackets or braces) to surround words that should not be printed to a report.
 
==== Notes ====
 
*In TMG you can save a screens layout and have the ability to load those layouts. - (Gramps not so much :( )
 
 
 
*In TMG the selected person is called the "Subject"
 
 
 
*In TMG a "Project" may contain many "Dataset(s)"  - (Gramps only one Family tree open at a time)
 
** The "Dataset(s)" are real "sets" in that they share nothing but the "Project" container.
 
** For each of the views and lists above unless you have hidden/filtered the dataset they can all be searched on at the same time.
 
** To identify separate datasets TMG given them an identifying number and prepends that number to the TMG ID# separated by a ":"(colon)<br>eg: 5:3045 means dataset 5 TMG Individual Number 3045
