Have a look at Porkie-Pies thread to see if there is anything to help you there. Just click on the link which will open in a new window.

You ought to be able to find someone in your tree via the 'list'. Type the relatives name in the box at the top of the list. Once you've found it, click on the name. You can then choose to view them in your tree with either immediate family, full, ancestors or descendents.

You can also open the profile panel from the 'list' if you prefer to work that way.

Don't forget you can drag the tree to a more central position on the page. If you think about it, its deliberately located to the left as otherwise the target person would be obscured when you open the details panel.

unsure if ive got the right board for this . but since genes changed the layout of the site im having problems with my tree ,before i always used the old tree option as all details about the person were there in front of you but now my tree wont go to full screen so im viewing my tree in an oblong box about 9 inches by 3 inches in the left hand corner . if i need details that comes up in the right hand corner in a smaller oblong box while scrolling down it either jumps from the persons name right to the bottom so i have to click down very gently which takes ages .and also while searching my tree i put in a persons name it always comes back no matches found ,i have to start at the begining and work through the family line till i find them .this is also happening with other members trees i have access to, which is causing problems as i dont know their connection to the person i inquired about has anyone else had these problems or is it just me ?
