Show in Spouse's Box that there are more relatives

Post by LesBremner » 18 Aug 2010 11:37

In a diagram, there are frequently, but not always, further records attached to a spouse.  Sometimes these can make a whole Tree in its own right.  However, unless the user starts a new diagram from each spouse box, there is no way of telling which ones are worth looking at.

I suggest a display in the spouse's box to say how many of the spouse's relatives in addition to those currently displayed that the user would display if 'all relatives' were invoked from the spouse's box.  

That would probably involve lengthy programming, so a simpler solution would be to calculate the number of ancestors for the spouse and display that number.
