I would like to print all individuals in a GED File as a Tree. At the moment I have to use other Programs to do this (eg GRO) but the results are not entirely satisfactory.

Is there a chance that FH may offer this ability at a future date?

All-in-one diagram

Jane,

May I please add my vote for an 'all entries' diagram.
A fortnight ago we had a 'family gathering' and I produced a tree showing everyone - people just love to see how they relate to a common ancestor - and everyone else.
Only problem was the tree was 20 feet x 6 ft and took 2 days to glue together!!!!!!!!!!

All Entries Diagram - detail.

I love the ability to turn branches on and off, it would be useful to do this sideways as well!

By this I refer to the ability to choose which elements of an all entries diagram one would want.

Imagine an all entries diagram, but then the ability to turn off second spouses individually, or some downward branches / upward branches.

At a conceptual level this is very simple - display all entries, and for each link outside the 'nuclear blood' family, (i.e. mother / father / children), allow the line to be shown or not.

The reality is that trees are complex, I have several relationships where A marries B, and A's sister marries B's brother, and then B dies, and A remarries one of B's other sisters etc. You then find them a generation or two below marrying cousins! Not quite incestuous, but not far off! This is complex to display, unless one has total flexibility in how branches are turned on and off...
