************Papercuts - Enhancements******************
[](Feature# )for the "filter" gramplets name each one (shown on Title bar when detached) and provide working help link (then update screenshots and link to wiki)
[](feature# )"Add Rule dialog": if you select a filter then select a top level category of filter" the right hand window shows random stuff from previous filters (suggest displaying a blank area only)
[]( )for web calendar report:
[] add a menu option under "Help" to "Open folder locations"? to aid with helping people for "user directory" etc "Media directory" (see recent difficulty with finding user directory
https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=10370
[] for the "filter" gramplets can we name each one (shown on Title bar when detached) and provide working help link (then update screenshots and link to wiki)[] For "Paper_Options" if the user is not in [Myanmar, Liberia, or the USA United States] and comes from a country that uses metric set paper to A4 automatically!

'''The International System of Units has been adopted as the official system of weights and measures by all nations in the world except for Myanmar, Liberia, and the United States, while the United States is the only industrialised country where the metric system is not the predominant system of units.'''

[] text reports - Place Report - use the active selected place by default and then allow people to change (keep it consistent with how other reports are.)
[] Graph report - Family Lines - consider having "People of Interest" tab first so it's obvious that something has to be selected / or bring this report in line with others so that the Active person is already selected at a minimum.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@User manual@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
[] Using a wiki for the user manual has already been shown that it does not make translating the manual any easier! (find a simpler way so as to not waist waste a translators time) as well as the overhead of maintaining the mediawiki!
[] Note that page 20 ( Gramps_5.0_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_1 ) will be merged to ( Gramps_5.0_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports ) later as Gramps code needs to update for all subsequent pages!!)
[] add documentation section about "Active Person" / " Home Person" to user manual
..............Unsorted................................
[] Only documented behavior should be supported. Ensure that clear documentation is a requirement for contributions enhancing Gramps (Part of the PR)
[] '''Configuration Files''' Add advanced apendix that mentions. the assorted files eg: Custom filters (custom_filter.xml) and report setting (?.xml) and how they are not being backed up for migration and backup? also ( recent-files-gramps.xml )
see:

Gramps has two dialogs called "Attribute Editor dialog" that look different but bot both collect the same info in the top section.
eg: from Source's attribute tab creating a new attribute.
