You can create as many graphical representations of your genealogy as you wish. A tree chart may be saved with the data it contains and its layout. It can then be reopened, modified in its presentation, print\u00aded again. It has become independent of the Heredis data file.
\nChoose\u00a0Documents > Charts\u2026\u00a0<\/strong>or click Charts<\/strong> \"\"on the toolbar to visu\u00adally select the tree charts proposed by Heredis.<\/p>\n

The printing of a tree chart takes as its starting point the primary person displayed and will display his\/her ancestors.<\/p>\n

Choice of tree chart<\/h3>\n

Choose your tree chart<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the displayed selection screen, choose the type of tree to build from the list.
\nHeredis proposes various types of tree charts, the size of which is predefined (from A4 to A0 or Letter to Quad demy). Whatever the type of tree chart selected, you can print it or have it printed over several pages or a single long strip of paper.
\nWhen a tree exceeds the size of your printer, each page is printed with an overlap to facilitate mounting of the chart.<\/p>\n

Choice of theme<\/h3>\n

Click a theme in the coverflow. To facilitate your choice, Heredis dis\u00adplays an overall preview of the tree to be edited with this theme and a preview of a box. Scroll through the different themes by pressing the arrow keys.
\nThe last used themes are preset for each type of tree chart.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Chart Settings<\/h3>\n

Specify the construction parameters that suit you for the selected theme: number of generations, people to be displayed or not on the tree chart.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> Predefined tree charts are the artwork of artists so they can’t be fully personnalized.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Indicate the number of generations, which may range from 4 to 8 depending on the type of tree chart and the theme selected in the Chart Settings<\/strong> field.<\/li>\n
  2. Select the persons to be included on the tree chart. By default all persons included in the ancestry of the primary person are displayed on the tree chart. You may untick marked, secondary or confidential persons. You may also not display private data. See also The different data fields<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  3. Click OK<\/strong> to start the display of the tree chart.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Tree Chart Screen<\/h3>\n

    Heredis displays a tree chart representing the lineage of the prima\u00adry person and which is printable immediately. If you want to make changes to the tree chart, you have tools in the form of removable panels specific to the various tree charts.<\/p>\n

    Toolbars and Menus<\/h4>\n

    When the tree chart is displayed, the menus and buttons are different from those for data management.
    \nUse the\"\" New \u2013 \"\"Open \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0\"\"\u00a0<\/strong>Save \u2013 \"\"\u00a0Page Setup \u2013 \"\"\u00a0Print<\/strong>\u00a0buttons for nor\u00admal actions.<\/p>\n

    Display the buttons you most often use by choosing right click on the toolbar then Customize toolbar.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Use the tree chart menus to manage also the layout of the screen or the selection of people on the tree chart.
    \nInfo<\/strong> \u2022 You can create a new tree chart while an existing tree chart is already on the screen. Click the \"\" New<\/strong> button on the chart toolbar and select a new type of tree chart and a new theme, or choose\u00a0File<\/strong>\u00a0> New<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Persons Panel<\/h4>\n

    The Persons<\/strong> panel of the tree chart contains a list of all individuals included in the chart. Clicking a person in the list previews that per\u00adson\u2019s box in the tree chart. A double click navigates through the tree, if its size exceeds that of the screen, to display the box for a selected person.<\/p>\n

    \"\"
    \nTo quickly find a person in the list of individuals on the tree chart, enter the surname and\/or one or more given names.
    \nRefine the search by selecting from the pop-up menu, the gender of the person sought if the name is multiple.<\/p>\n

    The Data<\/strong> panel shows you a summary of the person whose box is selected. All information displayed here may appear in the box according to the type of content selected.<\/p>\n

    \"\"
    \nThe Preview<\/strong> panel shows the selected box. At the opening of the tree chart, Heredis displays a complete view of the document, whatev\u00ader its size. The preview is very useful in large tree charts, when the content of the boxes is not readable on the screen. This visualization immediately displays any changes that you apply to the box.<\/p>\n

    Settings Panels<\/h4>\n

    In the fixed size tree charts, the changes apply only to the content of the boxes.
    \nThe visual environment is not editable. Select the boxes to be modified. Use the selection tools.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    These panels allow either changes to be applied to the whole tree chart or changes to a given selection (one or more boxes).<\/p>\n

    Display screen<\/h4>\n

    The central area of the screen shows all the boxes of the tree chart, the background image and the frame of the tree chart.
    \nTo help you check and estimate the size of your tree chart, material\u00adize the pages on the screen.
    \nUnfold the Print Setup<\/strong>\u00a0panel and select Show Page Breaks<\/strong> or choose View<\/strong> menu > Show Page Breaks<\/strong>.
    \n\"\"<\/p>\n

    The number of pages depends on the chosen page format for your printer. To change the format and page orientation in your printer, click the Page Setup<\/strong> button in Print Setup<\/strong> panel or choose File<\/strong> menu > Page Setup<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    To move around the tree chart, use the horizontal and vertical bars, or change the zoom factor or double-click the name of a person from the Persons<\/strong> panel to display his\/her box directly.<\/p>\n

    Zoom<\/h4>\n

    You can increase (zoom in) or reduce (zoom out) the display of the tree chart. It is often necessary to reduce the display of a tree chart to visualize all required generations.
    \nChoose View<\/strong> menu > Zoom > Increase Magnification<\/strong> or View <\/strong>menu > Zoom > Decrease Magnification<\/strong>. To return to the actual size of the tree, choose View <\/strong>menu > Zoom > Actual Size.<\/strong>
    \nYou may also select different levels of zoom on the bottom bar of the tree chart screen.<\/p>\n
