To start the Network Chart addon use the following menu option {{man menu|Reports > Web Pages > Network Chart...}}
==Prerequisites==
URL Style selects one of Database, Dynamic, Static, or None (Don't include). This option selects what hyperlink will be used for individual nodes when the SVG chart is viewed from a browser. The Database option will select the primary URL from the database if one is available or none if it is not. Dynamic will use the URL Prefix, Suffix from the next line in the Menu and the GrampsID of the node. The Example Default Output chart shown includes dynamic URL's. For example, Henry Webb in the database has GrampsID = I0125. So the URL for that node will have the prefix of 'https://mywebsite.com/home/' and the suffix '.html' yielding a node with a link to 'https://mywebsite.com/home/I0125.html'. The dynamic URL changes for every node. A static URL will use only the URL Prefix and the Don't Include URL or None will not place any link in the nodes.

The font selection is straightforward. Obtain the name of the font that you wish to use and type it in the entry box. The only requirement is that the font already be installed on your system. If the font is not found then a default font will be used. This is a silent operation and will not warn on a font not found. When the SVG graph is generated that font will be identified for use, however, if someone viewing the chart does not have the same font installed they will see their default font instead. Embedding fonts in SVGs or making them a local access is possible but beyond the scope of this plugin. The default font is White Rabbit by Matthew Welch which is an extremely readable font. It can be obtained from https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/white-rabbit and the license found at http://www.squaregear.net/fonts/license.shtml .

The {{man label|Highlight}} preferences tab. The Highlight Menu highlights paths and individuals in the database. The Highlight Path option choices are "Direct" or "Any". The Direct option will attempt to find a direct path between the two individuals selected and highlight that path. The Any option will attempt to find any path between the two selected individuals and highlight that path. The example shows Highlight Path Direct between the two individuals with the result shown in Highlight Example 1.
