данный момент базу данных &app;. В настоящий момент, &app; может импортировать
|
|
|
|
|
данные из трёх различных форматов: GEDCOM, база данных &app; и пакет &app;.
|
|
|
|
|
Все возможности импорта доступны через элементы меню

|

<para>Как база данных &app;, так и пакет &app;, являются родными форматами
|

&app;. Пакет -- это сжатый архив, содержащий файл базы данных и все

медиа-объекты (изображения, звукозаписи, и т.д.), на которые ссылается
|
|
|

база данных. Пакет создается экспортом данных в пакет &app;, см.
|
|
|
|
|
<xref linkend="export-data"/>. База данных &app; -- это каталог, содержащий
|
|
|
|
|
файл базы данных и локальные медиа-объекты. База данных может также содержать
|
|
|
|
|
ссылки на нелокальные (внешние) медиа-объекты, поэтому нет гарантии, что она
|
|
|
|
|
абсолютно портативна. База данных &app; создается сохранением данных
|
|
|
|
|
обычным путём, см. <xref linkend="save-db"/>.

exception in this regard: it offers a choice of a variety of reports.

&app; can generate reports in a multitude of open formats, both

|
|
|
|
text based and graphical. &app; can also produce screen based reports
|
|
|
|
|
that are convenient for viewing a summary of your database.

Check <guilabel>Return values that do not match the filter rules

select one of the <guilabel>Rule operations</guilabel>. This allows you

to choose whether all rules must apply, only one (either) rule must

apply, or exactly one (either) rule must apply, in order for the filter

<para>The pane on the left-hand side displays available filter rules

arranged by their categories in an expandable tree. For detailed filter

rule reference, see <xref linkend="append-filtref"/>. Click on the

arrows to fold/unfold the appropriate category. Select the rule

from the tree by clicking on its name. The right-hand side displays

the name, the description, and the values for the currently selected

most of the exports, reports and some of the tools (such as comparing

<listitem><para>This utility allows you to verify the database based
|
|
|
|
|
on the set of criteria specified by you. This tool is different from
|
|
|
|
|
the previously described Check tool in the following. The Check tool
|
|
|
|
|
detects inconsistencies in the database structure. The Verify tool,
|
|
|
|
|
however, is detecting the records that do not satisfy your particular
|
|
|
|
|
criteria. </para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>For example, you may want to make sure that nobody in your
|
|
|
|
|
database had children at the age of 98. Based on common sense, such
|
|
|
|
|
a record would indicate an error. However, it is not a consistency
|
|
|
|
|
error in the database. Besides, someone might have a child at the of
|
|
|
|
|
98 (albeit this rarely happens). The Verify tool will display
|
|
|
|
|
everything that violates your criteria so that you can check whether
|
|
|
|
|
the record is erroneous or not. The ultimate decision is yours.
