Navigate the [[Gramps_Glossary#active_person|Active Person]] selection before changing to the [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Geography_Category|Geography]] Category view to map the Event Places associated with a different Person's Ancestors.
An interaction in the 1.0.3 version of the Add-on Addon with the Relationship view may cause the Map to fail to focus on a new Active Person. Use the Person View or Bookmarks to navigate this selection to a different person.
There are 4 pin types:<br>
For this multi-stage custom filter, create the following Cascade of custom filters:
# Create a Person custom Filter "ActivePerson" using the "Active Person" add-on addon Person General rule.
# Person custom Filter "ActiveAncestors" using [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Ancestral_filters|Ancestral filter]] "Ancestors of <filter> match"; filter=ActivePerson <br>''You might add a 2nd rule to include the Active Person and then select the "[[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Define_Filter_dialog#multiple_rule_options|At least one rule must apply]]" option. Otherwise, the Events & Places of the Active Person might be omitted''
# Events custom Filter "ActiveAncestorEvents" using [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Events_Category_2|Events General filter]] "Events of persons matching the <person filter>"; person filter=ActiveAncestors
# Places custom Filter "ActiveAncestorEventPlaces" using [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Places_Category_2|Places General filter]] "Places of events matching the <event filter>"; event filter=ActiveAncestorEvents
{{man tip| 1=Making Filters that are more reusable|2=You could built this using a Person custom filter set to the built-in Default Person (a.k.a. [[Gramps_Glossary#home_person|Home Person]]) General rule. That would more directly correspond to this add-on addon Geography view mode.<br><br>But a custom Filter using the "Active Person" add-on addon Person General rule is much more flexible. It stays synchronized to the Person being edited instead of continually resetting the Home Person designation or editting editing a rule that had been preset to a specific PersonID.<br><br>'' Download and use the incredibly useful add-on addon Person General Rule that was created in early 2020. It replaces the awkward PersonID based rules and makes Custom Filters MUCH more dynamic. Thanks Paul!''}}

Whenever the Ancestors Map mode of the Geography category view is selected, the Sidebar is re-enabled. The focus will change with Active Person but not via the Relationship view
 
Steps To Reproduce:
Download & enable the Ancestors Map Geography category view mode add-on
Enable & tear-off the Pedigree & Descendants Gramplets
Select the Ancestors Map mode
Disable the Navigator from the View menu
Disable the toolbar from the View menu
Disable the sidebar from the View menu
Disable the bottombar from the View menu
 
Changing the focus requires re-enabling the Navigator to get to where the Person can be changed
Change the Active Person using the Relationship view
Switch back to the Ancestors Map
The focus does NOT change & the Sidebar is selected again in the View menu but not visible
 
Disable the sidebar from the View menu
Change the Active Person using the Person view
 
Switch back to the Ancestors Map
The focus DOES change but the Sidebar is selected again in the View menu but not visible
Before doing a screen capture, the map screen space was maximized by turning off the Narrator, toolbar, sidebar & Bottombar splitscreen sections.
 
But after going to the Person or Relationship view to re-designate a different Home Person focus, adfitional selections were re-enabled in the View menu.
 
Also, would it be possible to have 3 additional Configuration options:
 
1) checkbox to mark the focal person's Event Places (currently omitted)
2) add a help button pointed at the new Addon:AncestorsMap wikipage
