Overview

A Tag Set Cards Panel creates a list of cards, one card per tag.

The data items displayed inside the card are configurable and use filters to vary the contents based on the tag data. The list below and the accompanying image show how the content items are defined in GedSite. These cards use the default configuration, but users may customize the configuration to suit their preferences.

  1. Timeline with year and subject's age
  2. Label from Tag Type
  3. Date and Place
  4. Text from Sentence Template
  5. Citation References
  6. Role for a Principal
  7. Other Principal
  8. Spouse Details

Properties

Items

The Items property determines the content of the cards. The items are arranged in a hierarchy where items that are indented are contained by the first item above it that is indented one level less.

There are five item types:

  • Field
  • Block
  • Block Field
  • All Items Group
  • Alternatives Group
Field
Inserts a value from the tag into the current Block. You may add a filter to restrict the Field to certain tags only. If the tag does not pass the Field's filter, the value is omitted.
Block
Creates a block of content from the Fields defined within the Block. You may add a filter to restrict the Block to certain tags only. If the tag does not pass the Block's filter, the Block and all its Field values are omitted.

When there are multiple Fields in a Block, they will be on the same line until the length of the block forces the content to wrap to the next line.

Block Field
Creates a block of content using the same properties as a Field. This is a shortcut for combining a Block and a single Field.
All Items Group
Applies a filter and only processes the items in the group if the tag passes the filter.
Alternative Items Group
Applies a filter and only renders the items in the group if the tag passes the filter. Stops processing items in the group when the tag passes the filter of one of the items in the group.

Here are the items shown above with the item types shown in a separate image.
