Hi
I keep using this forum for stupid questions, not sure it the correct place, but then i am not sure of too much ref GR. Okay here goes. I added my name to the family tree section, and the added my spouse and my kids, and my mother and father. Moving on i added my grandfather and mother, and i now know my maternal great grandparents. My paternal history is not proving so easy to follow, thats another matter though.
I can't seem to find a way to display the entire chart i have created, to show both my ancestors as i currently know them, and my descendants. Anyone point me in the correct direction please?
Thanks in advance
David :-(

I don't use it much David so I may be misunderstanding you but this is the menu above the tree, clicking on 'Full' brings up my whole tree.

I just tried clicking on 'full' too and it worked for me.

Matthew and Jane Elwood who had my great great grandfather Francis Edward Elwood baptised in 1807 at Horsham Sussex. There is no sign of Matthew or Jane from this date and my great great grandfather was brought up as Francis Edward Elwood MITCHELL

Yes David clicking on full brings up all your tree, you can then use the up/down arrows (bottom left) to navigate.

Please don't worry about asking questions, this tree has only been with us a month or so and we are all slowly getting adjusted to it. :-)

try this ~

On top of your screen, to the right of the URL space, you should see a symbol that looks like a piece of paper torn in half; that's the "compatability" ~ not sure which way it works ON/OFF you should see more than just yourself. I'm always fiddling with the thing!

This new tree/system is driving me nuts.
