===Color===
[[File:Network_chart_menu_Color.png|thumb|400px|right|Network Chart Color Menu]] The {{man label|Color Menu }} preferences tab controls most of the colors on the chart. The Network Chart SVG background is transparent so the background color you see will be the default background color of your browser or if the SVG was embedded in a webpage with a background image you will see that image below the Network Chart SVG. The node backgrounds for Male, Female, and Other can be changed. An alpha is used for the individual node backgrounds. Setting this to 0 will make the node background completely transparent. Setting it to 255 will make it completely solid (opaque).
Connector lines are just that, the connecting lines from node to node for a family connection or marriage. The Highlight connector line is used for a highlighted path as discussed in the Highlight Menu section. The Trim box edge is used on nodes in the graph that have been "trimmed" as discussed in the Trim Menu section. Finally, all node background colors can be set to none with the Remove Color Backgrounds option.
===Privacy===
[[File:Network_chart_menu_Privacy.png|thumb|250px|left|Network Chart Privacy Menu]] The {{man label|Privacy menu }} preferences tab allows dates for birth and marriage to be made vague. All individuals that have a valid date for either a birth or marriage can have that date rounded to the nearest decade after the entered. (This feature will change in the future to round to just the year per Gramps make vague function.) Additionally, middle names can be changed to just show initials. (This feature will change in the future to just remove middle names altogether.) Finally, private records for individuals can be included or not. If not, the individual node will contain the words "Private Record" for all those individuals marked private in Gramps.
===Trim===
[[File:Network_chart_menu_Trim_1.png|thumb|250px|left|Trim Menu Example 1]] [[File:Shakespeare_network_trim_1.svg|thumb|200px|right|Trim Example 1]] The {{man label|Trim menu }} preferences tab allows "trimming" of the database to display less individuals in the Network Chart. The Trim Descendants option trims all descendants "below" the selected individuals. The Trim Ancestors option attempts to trim all ancestors "above" the selected individuals. Individuals by marriage will also be removed depending on their location in the network relative to the person trimmed. Both options allow entry of multiple people. The Trim Menu image shows the selection of individual I0118 to trim descendants and I0111 to trim ancestors. The result is shown on the right in the Trim Example 1. Note the nodes of the individuals selected on the trim tab are bordered with a red dashed trim.
