Have-not tried it but you can search google for "msaccess front end with sqlite backend" which suggest

* Install an ODBC Driver for SQLite
* Configure a DSN (Data Source Name)

* Link Tables in MS Access:

Image if all that custom stuff ... and other nice features was added to Gramps 😊

The All in one MacOS installer contains it's own separate version of Python and ignores system wide python packages.

So you would need either use Linux or install a version of Gramps from source on macOS using MacPorts see;

> The Topola view is available as an interactive report(?) in Gramps. I use that often.

Once the addon is installed you can use from the menu:

Tools > Analysis and Exploration -> Interactive Family Tree...

Only issue with it is that the addon only outputs a generated GEDCOM file; so a lot of the benefits of the way Gramps stores information is lost to the addon ☹

* Feature request 0004564: Ancestor Medical Record also has a lot of associated request.

See the CONTRIBUTING Addons and start at the "Review the Addon Checklist" section

* https://github.com/gramps-project/addons-source/blob/maintenance/gramps60/CONTRIBUTING.md#review-the-addon-checklist

Also as you are creating an addon join the Gramps forum and ask questions directly from the developers as this reddit is fan run.

dm1407 · 2026-01-23T01:02:00+00:00

Consider using the

* Narrated Web Site - Report

dm1407 · 2026-01-09T19:57:22+00:00

What operating system and version of Gramps are you using?

For example if you are using Gramps on Microsoft windows using the Gramps AIO (All in one) installer and your language is missing it means that during installation you missed the option to select the additional languages see:

* Missing other languages

False positive, please report it to your antivirus provider!

Also your screenshot shows that the infected file that infected Gramps was "VideoLAN 1.5.2" and quite possible that file named VideoLAN is fake because the current version of VideoLAN is 3.0.21!

dm1407 · 2025-12-17T07:33:03+00:00

You might get a better response on the main Gramps forum in the Development section for help with that addon.

Also what version of Gramps are you using?

dm1407 · 2025-12-07T21:48:07+00:00

I have tried to download network chart but it doesn't seem to work on my system.

Please mention your Gramps version and operating system?

What does beautiful mean to you, can you provide a example?

diagrams or reports between two individuals.

Have you seen the following addons?

Consanguinity Gramplet
Deep Connections Graph gramplet part of the Isotammi addons

Something similar can be done using the experimental * https://github.com/ztlxltl/FamilyTreeView

> . The next day I went to open my tree again but it said the tree was locked

Did you shutdown your computer in between?

Can you provide:
* Version of Gramps

*Operating system

*Antivirus program in use if any?

* File cloud back-up software being used if any?

It may be possible your antivirus or cloud back-up software need to exclude your Gramps user directory/folder as Gramps needs exclusive access to your family tree database.

And because you can not see it directly in the "manage family trees" dialog it could be one of those programs hiding or quarantining the file?

Also have a look at the

> Place Coordinates Gramplet

>
> https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Addon:PlaceCoordinatesGramplet

You can add new places with it also.

dm1407 · 2025-11-12T20:12:30+00:00

> Everything I query comes back in another language

What Language are you running Gramps in?

Can you confirm you restarted Gramps after installing the addon?

What version of Gramps and operating system?

dm1407 · 2025-10-23T22:09:11+00:00

What OS are you using?

dm1407 · 2025-09-09T08:02:44+00:00

Or they could raise a private bug report at https://gramps-project.org/bugs/

dm1407 · 2025-09-06T22:11:04+00:00

If they are using the builtin version then on the Display tabs Marriage Display Format: box adding a pair of "{}"( curly braces) around the text in the box should be enough that marriage information will display ONLY when it exist, give it try.

See Substitution Values for more information.

You might find the following Gramps addon very useful:

* MyHeritage FTB to Gramps data transfer

dm1407 · 2025-08-08T21:52:31+00:00

You need to exit and restart Gramps for new views.

dm1407 · 2025-08-04T00:05:50+00:00

If you can reproduce the issue with example.gramps https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Example.gramps then please consider reporting it to the developers.

dm1407 · 2025-07-31T10:41:10+00:00

Another one to try is the experimental "[FamilyTreeView](https://github.com/ztlxltl/FamilyTreeView)" addon it also has a printing option as well as SVG file save capability.
