<tip number="5"><b>Talk to Relatives Before It Is Too Late</b><br/>Your oldest relatives can be your most important source of information. They usually know things about the family that haven't been written down. They might tell you nuggets about people that may one day lead to a new avenue of research. At the very least, you will get to hear some great stories. Don't forget to record the conversations!</tip>
<tip number="7"><b>Filtering People</b><br/>In the People View, you can 'filter' individuals based on many criteria. To define a new filter go to &quot;Edit &gt; Person Filter Editor&quot;. There you can name your filter and add and combine rules using the many preset rules. For example, you can define a filter to find all adopted people in the family tree. People without a birth date mentioned can also be filtered. To get the results save your filter and select it at the bottom of the Filter Sidebar, then click Apply. If the Filter Sidebar is not visible, select View &gt; Filter.</tip>

<tip number="8"><b>Inverted Filtering</b><br/>Filters can easily be reversed by using the 'invert' option. For instance, by inverting the 'People with children' filter you can select all people without children.</tip>

<tip number="9"><b>Locating People</b><br/>By default, each surname in the People View is listed only once. By clicking on the arrow to the left of a name, the list will expand to show all individuals with that last name. To locate any Family Name from a long list, select a Family Name (not a person) and start typing. The view will jump to the first Family Name matching the letters you enter.</tip>

<tip number="19"><b>What's That For?</b><br/>Unsure what a button does? Simply hold the mouse over a button and a tooltip will appear.</tip>
<tip number="20"><b>Unsure of a Date?</b><br/>If you're unsure about the date an event occurred, Gramps allows you to enter a wide range of date formats based on a guess or an estimate. For instance, &quot;about 1908&quot; is a valid entry for a birth date in Gramps. Click the Date button next to the date field and see the Gramps Manual to learn more.</tip>

<tip number="22"><b>Merging Entries</b><br/>The function &quot;Edit &gt; Compare and Merge...&quot; allows you to combine separately listed people into one. Select the second entry by holding the Control key as you click. This is very useful for combining two databases with overlapping people, or combining erroneously entered differing names for one individual. This also works for the Places, Sources and Repositories views.</tip>

<tip number="23"><b>Organising the Views</b><br/>Many of the views can present your data as either a hierarchical tree or as a simple list. Each view can also be configured to the way you like it. Have a look to the right of the top toolbar or under the &quot;View&quot; menu.</tip>

<tip number="54"><b>Keeping Good Records</b><br/>Be accurate when recording genealogical information. Don't make assumptions while recording primary information; write it exactly as you see it. Use bracketed comments to indicate your additions, deletions or comments. Use of the Latin 'sic' is recommended to confirm the accurate transcription of what appears to be an error in a source.</tip>
<tip number="57"><b>Extra Reports and Tools</b><br/>Extra tools and reports can be added to Gramps with the &quot;Addon&quot; system. See them under &quot;Help &gt; Extra Reports/Tools&quot;. This is the best way for advanced users to experiment and create new functionality.</tip>
