Making your own Quick view

You can easily make a Quick view, even with limited programming/coding knowledge.

Many users want to produce a view quickly for their specific needs, but are hindered by the fact they do not want to learn python fully, nor the intricacies of a complicated program like Gramps.

These views are short textual reports that the user can register with Gramps, so they automatically appear in the context menu's.

Accompanying this, the simple database access and simple document interface's have been constructed, so as to hide as much complexity as possible.

See the Quick Views Coding page to make your own.
