relationship not always shown on cascading pedigree

[jrshannahan]

Not sure if this is an "undocumented feature" or a problem of my understanding, but when generating a cascading pedigree with the relationship to source on, sometimes it works and sometimes not; it seems to ignore the female side beyond GGG Grandfather.

Re: relationship not always shown on cascading pedigree

Reunion does not calculate relationships as you add people, so it's possible the entries aren't showing relationships because they've been added since the last time you calculated relationships.

Please try re-calculating relationships by opening the Relatives sidebar, clicking Change at the top, selecting "Current source person" and then clicking Identify. Once that's done, recreate the cascading pedigree and let us know if the relationships still don't show.

Thanks!

Re: relationship not always shown on cascading pedigree

I have found the fastest way to do this and keep on working is three steps:

1. Click the Home button at the bottom of the window to get to current Source person.

2. Right click on Source person and choose Find Relatives.

3. Click on Back arrow at bottom and you are back where you started with the relationship now calculated and showing.

It does change the right sidebar to Relatives, so, depending on your work style, at some point, you may need to switch the sidebar back to People.

1. Click the Home button at the bottom of the window to get to current Source person

FYI, The Home button doesn't always lead to the Source person, they are separate settings -- it's possible to have a source person who is not in the Home family.
