Strict ancestry
A fan chart shows only direct ancestors of the centred person. Siblings, partners, descendants, and step-parents stay on the wall chart view.
Ancestor fan
Centre a person. Fan their ancestors outward.
A circular view of the same family data you build for the wall chart. Pick a person at the centre; their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents radiate outward in colour-grouped quadrants. Unknown ancestors leave a soft empty wedge.

Just ancestors, fanning outward.

Recentre on anyone
Defaults to you. Switch the centre to a grandparent to see their ancestors fan out — useful when one branch of the family is better documented than the others.
Colour-coded lines
Four soft pastels mark the four ancestral lines — paternal grandfather, paternal grandmother, maternal grandfather, maternal grandmother. Each line lightens as it walks outward so the ring depth stays readable.
