{{man warn|Unreleased addon|You may install the [[Gramps_Glossary#gramplethttps://github.com/hgboldt/consanguinity addon manually if you are interested in helping to test and report issues].}}The {{man label|Consanguinity Gramplet]] to show }} shows [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedigree_collapse pedigree collapse] and spousal [[Genealogy_Glossary#consanguinity|consanguinity]] for the [[Gramps_Glossary#active_person|Active Person]].
== Usage ==
[[File:ConsanguinityNotebook.png|thumb|right|267px|Fig. {{#vardefineecho:figure|{{#expr:{{#var:figure}}+1}}}} Detached Consanguinity Gramps - Notebook mode]]
The {{man label|Consanguinity Gramplet}} displays information about the [[Gramps_Glossary#active_person|Active Person]] and any spouses.
The Consanguinity gramplet Gramplet is an add-on for updated whenever the People views of GrampsActive Person focus shifts. (When installed, this gramplet will be a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#The_split-screen_Sidebar_.26_Bottombar|sidebar/bottombar option]] for the following views: {{icon|peop}}People, {{icon|rela}}Relationships, {{icon|ance}}Charts, and {{icon|geog}}Geography.)
However, any open Pedigree and pedigree collapse diagram windows remain unchanged. This allows them to be used for navigating the Active Person focus and for direct comparison to windows opened on other persons. === Adding the Consanguinity Gramplet ===The {{man label|Consanguinity Gramplet}} is designed to be added to the sidebar {{icon|rela}}[[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Relationships_Category|Relationships Category]] (''Grouped'' or ''List'') view modes of Gramps. (After [[{{man version}}_Addons#Manually_installed_Addons|manually installing]]<!--[[Third-party_Addons#Installing_Addons_in_Gramps|installation]]-->, this gramplet will be available for addition in all these locations: the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#The_split-screen_Sidebar_.26_Bottombar|sidebar/bottombar option]] for the following views: {{icon|peop}}People, {{icon|rela}}Relationships, {{icon|ance}}Charts, and {{icon|geog}}Geography.) Select the {{man label|Consanguinity}} menu option from the {{man label|Add a gramplet}} submenu of the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Gramplet_Bar_Menu|Gramplet selection menus after ]]. Accessible by pressing the {{man button|∨}} (''Down Arrowhead'' button) in the view's sidebar or bottombar. === Controls ===

== Example ==
The sample example tree included with Gramps includes a few instances of Pedigree Collapse.
So to reproduce this diagram, import the [[Example.gramps|example.gramps]] file to a new tree.
{{man warn|1=Importing can create a mess!|2=Be careful that you do NOT import the [[Example.gramps|example .gramps]] data into your own Family tree. Cleaning out the contamination of records related to thousands of fictitious people would be troublesome. Always double-check which tree is already loaded before importing a file.}}
Switch to the {{icon|peop}}People View via the navigator bar. Find ''<code>Piatt D. Warner</code>'' and make him the Active Person. (By selecting that row.)
Switch to the {{icon|rela}}Relationships View via the navigator bar. Add the {{man label|Consanguinity gramplet Gramplet}} to the view's sidebar as described in the [[#Usage|Usage]] section above. Resize the width the sidebar so that the contents fit comfortably.
<!--Detach (undock) the gramplet by dragging its titlebar off the sidebar to the main window of Gramps. Then arrange the undocked gramplet dialog where it won't interfere with seeing the view's data.-->

=== Explore the common ancestry ===
Since ''<code>Piatt D. Warner</code>'' is the Active Person, the contents of the {{man label|Consanguinity gramplet Gramplet}} will be in the '''Single Pane''' mode (Figure 1 shows the '''Notebook ''' mode where spouses are on separate pages) and look something like the following section. (Although the gramplet will have hotlinked People and Relationship.) The text below was created by clicking the {{man button|Copy}} button and pasting it into this article.
<pre>
Warner, Piatt D. (*9 Apr 1821, +11 Oct 1889)
The hotlinks on the names of People will navigate the focus of Active Person selection to that person.

=== The Relationship diagram ===
[[File:ConsanguinityDiagram.png|thumb|right|270px|Fig. {{#vardefineecho:figure|{{#expr:{{#var:figure}}+1}}}} Consanguinity diagram window (click a Relationship hotlink)]]
Clicking the described {{man label|Relationship}} will open a block diagram of that instance of pedigree collapse and how it relates to the Active Person.
A text list is more actionable when sharing with family and other genealogists than a diagram. A diagram makes understanding the relationship easier. But a list can be transcribed into a form or another program more easily.
An example of Piatt's pedigree is shown in Figure 3. You will notice that the the lines for ancestors 152 and 153 are marked as being the same as ancestors 68 and 69 (Edward Christiansen and Elizabeth Thomas). This is where there is pedigree collapse for Piatt. The rest of the list will crop out the ancestors of 152 and 153 because they too are duplicated.
But which children were the siblings? Just divide the ancestor number by 2 to get the number of their child. Half of 152 is 76 (Nathanial Christiansen) and half of 68 is 34 (off-screen in Figure 3 but this is Joseph Christiansen). You can use this method in any Ahnentafel Numbering System. You can also use [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahnentafel#Deductive_reckoning "deductive reckoning"] determine their exact relationship to the #1 person by their number.

== Trickery to Diagram Cousin connections ==
The Consanguinity Gramplet is designed to help determine the various degrees of consanguineous relationships between the Active Person and their spouse(s). It does so in a more comprehensive way than can be found in any other combination of tools in Gramps.
But what if the people you want to compare and contrast are just distant cousins? The Gramplet is not designed to help with that... but you can trick it into helping. Create a temporary family and add the two cousins to be compared. The Edit Family must be closed with the OK button to commit it to the Tree.
When you have explored sufficient, Edit the temporary Family again to remove both people. When the Family Editor window is closed with the OK, the now-empty temporary family will be deleted.
Because the Consanguinity Gramplet was not designed for this purpose, it doesn't handle some relationship situations well. (As an example: creating a temporary relationship between Ancestor and their Descendant confuses it badly.)
