What is TreeDraw?

TreeDraw

TreeDraw is a handy tool for historians who need to create genealogy graphs. It’s super useful when you want to see all your information laid out clearly.

Why Use TreeDraw for Genealogy?

If you're looking for a quick way to make family tree graphs, TreeDraw is the way to go. This genealogy software helps you whip up those graphs without breaking a sweat!

User Interface Overview

The user interface of TreeDraw is simple but feels a bit dated. Most of the basic features are easy to find and use without needing to read through the manual. However, be prepared; some functions might trip you up at first, so it’s good to explore a bit.

Keyboard Shortcuts and Functionality

One thing to note is that not all keyboard shortcuts work like you'd expect. For example, if you hit Ctrl + Z, it won’t undo your last action in this program. Instead, try Alt + Backspace for that! Also, there’s no redo shortcut available, which can be frustrating.

Drawing Options Available

TreeDraw does offer some cool drawing options like rectangles, rounded rectangles, ellipses, and lines. Plus, items you create can snap together nicely, making drawing a lot smoother.

Add Text with Ease

You can add text to your shapes easily! Just remember that changing the text format isn’t instant—you’ll have to go through the traditional menu if you want adjustments. And watch out when adding images; sometimes they can mess up your text alignment!

Importing Family Trees Made Easy

The software allows importing various family tree types from Kith and Kin Pro or other genealogy programs that support GEDCOM files.

Your Go-To Genealogy Software

To wrap it up: if you're looking for genealogy software that helps create different family graphs without worrying too much about minor glitches or an old-school interface—TreeDraw is definitely worth considering!

TreeDraw also fits perfectly into collections of Genealogy Tools.
