When used above json object dTree is not showing marriages of Jane

[ErikGartner]

Yes that, is because spouses can't have marriages. It would be a nice feature but is currently not supported.

[zaheer1389]

also how to add parent of spouses?

[ErikGartner]

Also not supported yet. Feel free to make a pull request solving either issue. :-)

[shelleyvadams]

Adding to the complexity, what changes would be necessary for the JSON representation for remarriage to a related individual? I don't think that's possible with the current data structure.

A historical example would be Catherine of Aragon, the widow of Arthur Tudor who later married his brother Henry VIII of England. The story of Tamar from the Hebrew Bible provides an even more complex example.

[ErikGartner]

@shelleyvadams I think that would be solved best by referring to nodes in the tree. That is the first time the node is defined you manually assign it an identifier and then you can reference that node in other places.

[palitu]

yeah - it would be nice to be able to refer to other nodes in the tree as needed.

I would like to start to add in further ancesters to spouses, though it gets to a point where it is too wide ranging, and would become a mess.

Is this still being developed at all? and d oyou have any examples of people who have made their family tree in it??

[aroraank]

@ErikGartner Are these features supported now ?

[ErikGartner]

Sorry, I don't have the time to work on new features for dTree. Feel free to make a pull request if you have a good solution :)
