Using People Relationship

The Colors

The ancestry line from the selected Person is in color red and only up to the grandfather is shown by default but can be expanded by tapping the node (circle) or person name which expands two levels at a time.

Nodes (circles) with blue color means there are descendants (children; note that only Males have descendants in the diagram for simplified implementation) or ancestor so they can be expanded by tapping (or the names associated).

Leaf nodes (unfilled circles at the right) denotes persons without known descendants (children) so tapping it will no longer cause an expand but instead information is shown. Similarly, ancestors with unknown parent and only have one child (in the ancestry line) can no longer be expanded/collapsed so information is shown when tapped.

    Please note that in case of many nodes (people - ancestors or descendants), the update of the display could be slow for the Messianic line because of too many people.
