Ancestor Breakdown Report

Post by Seeker » 29 Nov 2019 13:40

I've come across a printed report I made in January 2017 entitlwes "Ancestor Breakdown for..."
It lists the starting person as generation 1.
The next line is Gen 2 - parents, followed by gen 3 Grandparents, etc up to gen 14 (in this case)
The following information is also shown on each line, the possible number ( 2 parents, 4 grandparents, etc), the actual number (in the data base) and the percent achieved. It also has columns for the accumulating sum.

I would appreciate some help in finding this report once again

Does it look like anything like a Report such as the Narrative Ancestors by Generation or Ancestor Outline?
Or more like a printed Query Result Set (or perhaps from a Plugin) in regular rows and columns?
On reflection to produce accumulating counts and percentages it must be a Plugin.
Try checking your Tools > Plugins for any likely candidates.
Maybe it is Ancestors and Descendants Counts by Generation.

Yes, that Ancestor by Generation Count Plugin is similar to the Ancestors and Descendants Counts by Generation in the Plugin Store, except that the latter does both Ancestors and Descendants.

Thank you.
I had forgotten all about Plugins. A sign of old age I fear.
I had modified Jane's Ancestor Counts by Generations to give the additional columns.
I'm now able to reproduce the report.
