<para>An additional advanced scheme of labeling generations exists in
Pedigree View. It becomes available by setting the anchor on some active
person. If the anchor is set, the generations are labeled as follows.
The anchor
person (and his/her generation) is labeled as <guilabel>0</guilabel>.
The ancestor generations are numbered with positive integers
(<guilabel>1</guilabel>, <guilabel>2</guilabel>, <guilabel>3</guilabel>,
etc.) while the descendant generations are numbered with negative integers
(<guilabel>-1</guilabel>, <guilabel>-2</guilabel>, <guilabel>-3</guilabel>,
etc.). In all cases, the number represents the number of generations
between the labeled generation and the anchor person. In this mode,
you can travel along the extensive pedigree line and see the number
of generations counting from the anchor person.</para>
<para>To set the anchor, select the <guilabel>Set anchor</guilabel> menu
item from the right-click context menu, when the desired person is the
Active person in the Pedigree View. The labels will change immediately,
and the name of the anchor person will appear at the lower left corner
of the display area.
The set anchor person will stay in effect until either the anchor is
removed (by selecting the <guilabel>Remove anchor</guilabel> item from the
context menu) or until the active person chosen is unrelated to the anchor
person. The latter move can be made using extensive navigation tools
available in &app;, see <xref linkend="gramps-nav"/> for the detailed
reference.
