The People Page in RootsMagic lets you switch between different views of the people in your family. You can switch between the views by clicking the tabs right above the views. As you move from person to person in any of the views, RootsMagic will update the information in the various side panel views.
Views
The views you can select from are:
•Pedigree view – displays 5 or 6 generations of ancestors

Sidebar
When you move the selection to a person in any of these views, RootsMagic will display information about that person in the "side view" on the left side of the screen. The side view provides an Info view plus four tabs of data that are tightly integrated with the people views.
