Visually-appealing graphical interface

It's packed with lots of nice features and tools, together with an intuitive graphical interface that makes it easy to create pedigree charts. A pedigree chart is a graphical visualization of a number of people and their genetic relationships.
As opposed to social pedigrees, which may include marriages, divorces, children from unmarried relationships, adopted children as well as people who have no children, the focus of genetic pedigrees is on the relevant biological connections between people.

Create pedigree charts

Pedigree Chart Designer was designed for the creation of such genetic pedigree charts and allows you to model the biological connections between people based on two relationships: parent-parent relationships and parent-child relationships.
In addition, each person can be annotated with their disease status and various other details of interest. In order to create a pedigree chart you must start by filling in some basic information about the pedigree, such as the family name (this might save some typing later on when naming individual people), a case number, and a comment.

More features and tools

You have the option to add people to the pedigree and configure their details. You can edit the person's name, add a birth date, write one or more lines of comment, define the person's sex, health status, whether the person is unborn, living, or deceased, as well as indicate whether the person is the index patient.
Relationships can be defined easily and it comes with some suggestions that you can check out. You can print a pedigree and it will automatically be scaled to fit to the currently selected paper size and orientation (portrait/landscape).
All in all, Pedigree Chart Designer is a very nice application for creating pedigree charts with lots of elements and relations.
