Hai Dan,

If you're working to get this item ready, maybe you can make it so that if a person in your tree is from a certain time like after 1950 or so,will be added as living.
Or that there will be a place to say that you want a person to remain private.

So in the report it will be changed to living.
And not their real name.

Some people in my tree want this.
Now i always make a copy of the tree and change it by hand.

Great idea,

it might be even a good idea to have "customizable" Report Generator, with checkboxes for items that could be included or excluded from it...

If some person wants to be excluded in some way from report such info might be located in his personal data…
By Rioxiann - Thursday, August 18, 2005
checkbox that's the word i forgot, hahahaha

Yes a checkbox in his personal data.

Than if i want to make a report it will noticed it and mark this person as "living"
By Rioxiann - Thursday, August 18, 2005
An other idea:
A checkbox for my emailadress so when i make a report it will say something like:
If you have more information for me you can email me.

Kiss Rioxiann

I have used the Report Generator in 1.9 and also used the edit function to modify the introductory text of the .htm output.

An additional feature that would be useful for 2.0 is to be able to add data to the Meta-tags. This can be used to add data looked at by search engines. At present this has to be added in separately each time a report is generated

One feature will be a "Privacy Profile" filtering information. There will be standard privacy profiles to ignore all indidivuals alive, to remove any addresses or contact information, or remove the day in the date of birth, etc. The privacy filter will be applied before generating the report, thus the data will not appear in the report nor the .gno file associated with the report. The default privacy filter will be "none", meaning all data will show in the report.

Has this Privacy Profile filter been developed as yet? If so, how can I apply it to my vresion of GenoPro 1.91b?

I read that it is applied before generating the report. What I do not know will that Privacy Filter impact the graphic tree? i.e. will a reader be able to "drill-down" into the property box and see the date of birth?

Please let me know, as I am now getting heat from my sister about her date of birth and identity theft.

The privacy filter has not been written yet. I am thinking of using a combination of list of tag names to exclude, plus allow some script (VBScript or JScript) to perform custom filtering.
<PrivacyFilter>
<ExcludeGenoMap>GenoMap2</ExcludeGenoMap>
<ExcludeTags>
<Individual>
<!-- Keep only the year of birth, by excluding both the day and month -->
Birth.Date.Day
Birth.Date.Month
</Individual>
<Contact>
<!-- Remove private contact information -->
Telephone
Fax
Email
</Contact>
</ExcludeTags>
</PrivacyFilter>

By the way, Beta13 will be available today.

By the way, I am not procrastinating. As I am doing the final review, I revise my list of "ideal features" and projecting GenoPro in 5, 10, 20 years. I also make sure all routines with similar names have consistent parameters for code orthogonality. Similarly, routines having same behavior (or parameters) should have similar names. Code orthogonality is the ability to re-use documentation to make it easy for the developer (you). For instance, the method ToString has the same parameters and behavior as ToHtmlHyperlinks. If you are familiar with .NET programming, you will notice I made a big effort to re-use knowledge with the .NET framework.

Distilling code orthogonality is a difficult and tedious task, as there are often multiple methods involved, each sharing common parameters, yet having a slightly different behavior. It is difficult to appreciate code orthogonality because orthogonal code always look "obvious". On the other hand, if you have to write code using a non-orthogonal framework, you will need the reference manual each and every time you want to use a routine or a method.

This final review is necessary for the future of GenoPro. If I forget something, I will be stucked with a bad design, unless change the code which will force every user to modify their report templates. On the other hand, having a good design allows me to add new features without breaking any existing code.

This is why, after 2 or so years of waiting... we still look forward for version 2... we trust you are doing a great job.... take your time... as long as you give us something today :wink: Tongue :lol:

Geeee.... This is shameful... On the positive side, I never thought GenoPro could do what it is doing today; this includes the GenoMaps, the internal hyperlinks and the report generator (to come). This means you will get a quality genealogy software with remarkable powerful features. Although the report generator is at its infancy, it is nevertheless the birth of a new era for genealogy computing.
