“Honor a GEDCOM FACT that Gramps can export to mark people as excluded” plus a View menu option.

[tdigorilla]

What problem it solves: Users need a way to hide people marked “ExcludeFromTopola”

How to reproduce: export GEDCOM from Gramps containing 1 FACT ExcludeFromTopola

Expected behavior: An optional view: “All relatives (hide excluded)” (or a Settings toggle

Actual behavior: Without it, people maked as excluded still show in the rendered tree

Proposed implementation: Add a new view + filtered data before chart rendering.

Locally, I refactored three files (app, chart, and top menu) to achieve the desired result. See screenshot.

A feature like this also opens the pathway for other semantic views, e.g.:
“Living only”
“Ancestors only”
“Direct line only”

Interesting idea. Maybe we could introduce a "Filter" field or configuration section within settings, where one could select one or more filtering options:

• living only
• max number of generations of ancestors
• max number of generations of descendants
• property text that excludes the person from the view (such as ExcludeFromTopola)
