The Biography Quickview shows a basic Biography based on the Events of the first selected Person in your Family Tree. The purpose was to create a text summary of a person with events... suitable for copy and pasting into a WikiTree profile.
The developer recommends using Title Given "Nickname" SURNAME Suffix custom name format in preferences. The Biography Quickview uses the “Common” name in the body of its report. The fallback order of “Common” name is: Call Name (if present), Nickname (if present), First name from the Given Name field.
The name, date, and place formats are controlled from the Display Options of the Data tab (or Display tab in 5.1.x or earlier versions of Gramps) of the Preferences.
The biography text is is based on the parents plus the dates and places of the following events with their sources:
- Birth
- Baptism
- Christening
- Marriage
- Death
- Burial
Usage
You can activate the Quick View by right-clicking on a person's name in the People Category View. Then select Quick View > Biography.
Tips
