Chris, Topola use names from GEDCOM file. This file create GRAMPS and send to Topola. GEDCOM not have advanced attributes (Alternative name, Preferred name and more) for name, GRAMPS have.
I have this problem too. In GRAMPS I see this name (for Russian names): Гусарова (Рыкова) Синклитикия Петрова
In GEDCOM file I see: 1 NAME Синклитикия /Петрова Рыкова Гусарова/ 2 GIVN Синклитикия 2 SURN Петрова, Рыкова, Гусарова
In Topola I see: Синклитикия Петрова Рыкова Гусарова (not good result, different with GRAMPS)
Topola use fields GIVN and SURN. For good name viewing Topola must use name's rules as GRAMPS.
Przemek, can you add "Settings" (for time and name format) to Topola-View menu?
P.S. Many time ago I use this name's rule in GRAMPS: Name Синклитикия Петрова Surname Гусарова (Рыкова)
GEDCOM have: 1 NAME Синклитикия Петрова /Гусарова (Рыкова)/ 2 GIVN Синклитикия Петрова 2 SURN Гусарова (Рыкова)
Topola view: Синклитикия Петрова Гусарова (Рыкова) (good result, not different with GRAMPS)
Hi
I am quite new to the whole gramps-gedcom-topola topic, so please excuse if this is a stupid question or/and this is the wrong place for it.
In gramps 5.1.2 I start the topola-viewer by clicking
Tools -> Analysis and Exploration -> Interactive Family Tree
. The family tree is displayed correctly and looks great. However, only one name of a person is shown. I was wondering if there is the possibility to show multiple names of a person?For example, a person may have an
Alternative name
next to thePreferred name
(using gramps naming here). It would be very nice if, for example, the birth name (Type: Birth Name
) of a person would be displayed next to the name taken after marriage (Type: Married Name
).Thanks a lot for any help, Chris
