Patch to Allow Removing of Dates in GenealogyJ’s Graphical Tree Report

I spent a bit of last night cleaning up this patch to support the option for removing dates in a GenealogyJ report. This is a wonderful report written by Przemek Wiech that allows people to create nice printable family trees. Aside from adding the removal of dates option, I noticed that it only colors upto 13 generations. I modified the code a bit to cycle three times to give us 36 generations.

Here is the patch file:

Good luck!

    Do you know of a web-based software that can create a similar family tree? Something that can be updated by others too, like a wiki?

    I also used a linux software called GRAMPS for easier editing. But that is a desktop client. I installed in our personal YUTIVO family tree site a software called phpgedview which allows people to correct their own entries. It has a permission structure that is pretty flexible.

    Btw, our family is now up to 27 generations!
