    How to view the whole family tree at once in Reunion for Mac

    I've been trying to find out how I can see the complete family tree in Tree View. But for some reason it keeps cutting of parts of the family (depending on where I click, or what couple I was looking at when still in Family View).
    I want to view it in hourglass mode.
    Also, what settings are best to use, when creating a chart to export, that includes *all* family members with their pictures?

    The Tree View really wasn't meant to do what you want. It is fast and quick but somewhat limited. Try using a Relative Chart with yourself in the middle. Set the appropriate number of generations up and down and this should give you the chart that you seek.

      That worked! Thank you so much. Do you also happen to know if/how I can add the automated annotations of 'grandfather', 'first cousin' etc. to the chart?

        Yes. Before clicking Create Chart, adjust the layout (in Define Layouts...) to include Relationships which is in the Append to Names setting of Settings.

            The relative chart is good, and what we've had to use for a long time, but only shows blood relatives to the source person and their spouses. If you want to look at EVERYBODY in your family file, try the Everybody chart, new in Reunion 14.
