The categories can contain several ways of presenting the data. Each specific way is called a View mode.

From this view, you may add, edit, remove, or merge people. Each view (List or Grouped) display several columns of information about each person.

====Family====
Similar to the Parents section is the Family section, which displays families where the Active Person is a parent. Because it is possible for a Person to have been a partner in multiple families, it is possible to have Gramps allows multiple Family sectionsto describe that. Each family section displays the spouse and any children. Children who were biological offspring of both partners in one Family might be a stepchild or adopted child for one partner of a subsequently formed family.
{{man note | Spouse |We use the term spouse for sake of simplicity. However, please note that spouse may in fact be a domestic partner, a partner in a civil union, or various other similar relationships between two people. Spouse relationships are ''not '' required to be only between a male and female.}}
You may add a family by selecting the {{man button|Add Spouse}} button in the toolbar. This will create a new family with the Active Person listed as a father or mother.
