Extending the number of generation beyond 7 in the Family Tree View

Marie-Christine_Nadon

Hello, would it be possible to extend the number of generations from 7 to 9 in the Fan Chart type of Family Tree? My family information goes back to the 1600's and it is frustrating to not see the complete family tree. Thank you for considering this request.

Kindly, Marie-Christine.

You are not alone ...

.

The "Ancestral" (ie. Pedigree) lines of MANY of us User/Patrons go WELL beyond the 1600's.

.

Some of my lines go back beyond 2000+ years.

.

The problem/issue in 'FamilySearch' is the NUMBER (or, VOLUME) of Users/Patrons using "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

.

'FamilySearch' simply cannot provide the 'Space'/'Room' to accommodate the needs of ALL Users/Patrons.

.

"Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' was initially "Created", by the Church, to accommodate the needs of Members of the Church; but, has grown well beyond that.

.

'FamilySearch' is a FREE service provided by the Church; and, is therefore limited in resources/funds.

Now ...

That said ...

.

There is an alternative ...

.

The best option to 'See'; 'Print'; or, even 'Download', one's ENTIRE "Ancestral" Lines; or, even, just beyond x7 Generations, from "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is to use one of the "Third Party" Applications (being one of the "Family Tree Management" programmes) that is "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

.

The "Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' can be found in the "Solutions Gallery" of 'FamilySearch'.

.

Here is a direct link to the "Solutions Gallery" of 'FamilySearch':

https://partners.familysearch.org/solutionsgallery/s/

.

And, here is the direct link to the "Family Tree Management programmes" themselves:

https://partners.familysearch.org/solutionsgallery/s/list?category=family_tree_management

.

"Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' include, BOTH, 'On-Line' "Websites" (eg. "Ancestry_com"; or "MyHeritage_com"; or, the like); and/or, 'standalone' personal (computer) programmes ("Ancestral Quest"; or, the like).

.

Some of the "Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' have, BOTH, a Basic FREE version; and/or, a Premium PIAD (ie. "Subscription") version, the latter just having more 'Bells and Whistles'. The Basic FREE version is sufficient for most, the average, User/Patron. Whereas, the Premium PAID (ie. "Subscription") version is the choice of most experienced and 'power' Users/Patrons.

.

You can use ONE or MORE than one, of the the "Third Party" Applications, the choice is yours.

.

Most of the "Third Party" Applications that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' that are "Family Tree Management programmes, have INTERFACES that work/connect (directly) with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' that can, "Download"; and, "Upload" (ie. "Transfer) between the "Third Party" Application and "Family Tree".

.

As well as the "Family Tree Management programmes", there are also "Printing" and "Chart" programmes ...

And, here is the direct link to the "Chart" programmes" themselves:

I hope this helps.
