Graphical reports represent information in forms of charts and graphs. Most of the options are common among graphical reports, therefore they will be described only once, at the end of this section. The few options which are specific to a given report will be described directly in that report's entry. See also [[Gramps_3.3_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_2|substitution values]].
The following graphical reports are currently available in GRAMPSGramps:

==== Tree tab ====
[[Image:descend_tree2_tab.png|right|thumb|250px|Descendant Options tab]]
Both of the Descendant Tree and Family Descendant Tree reports share these features on the Tree tab:
==== Display tab ====
[[Image:descend_display_tab.png|right|thumb|250px|Descendant Display tab]]
{{man label|Descendant Display Format}} gives you sets the opportunity to change the default settings display for all descendants in the displayed entries (see [[Display_formatting3_3|Substitution Values]])tree. The default is:
<pre>$n
b. $b
{d. $d}</pre> The {} around the death information line states that this entire line will display ONLY when there is death information. See [[Gramps_3.3_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_2|Substitution Values]] for more information, including how to include places and attributes, and format names and dates and places. And the check box {{man label|Bold direct descendants }} can also make the report easier to read.
You can set the {{man label|Spousal Display format}}. If you do not wish to have the separate marital box, the spousal box can be used for marriage information. This option defaults as above.
{{man label|Indent spouses}} will offset spouses a little from each other making it easier to know who has married who.
{{man label|Include marriage box}} will display a separate box on the tree for marriage information. The display for this box is set in {{man label|Marriage Display format}}.
{{-}}
==== Replace tab ====
[[Image:descend_replace_tab.png|right|thumb|250px|Descendant Replace tab]]
This allows you to put in pairs of strings separated by '/' that state what you want to replace and what you want to replace it with.
{{-}}

<pre>The United States of America/USA
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland/UK
Llanfair­pwllgwyn­gyllgo­gerychwyrn­drobwll­llanty­silio­gogogoch/Llanfairpwll</pre>
Every column width is defined by the widest box in the report. So if one box happens to be a lot wider than all of the others, a lot of space will be wasted. This option allows you to remove or abbreviate parts of the string that is not needed or can be cut down so the amount of space wasted is minimal.
==== Include tab ====
{{man label|Report title}} allows you to choose a title for the report.
* ''Descendant Chart for [selected person(s)]''
