Thank you, Kense.

You could post what you would like to happen on the Suggestions board.

There is, however, virtually zero chance of anything being done to improve the tree at present.

In terms of such facilities that is, (having just seen the new tree).

Thanks, Kense. They are still there when I view my tree. I appreciate finding possible matches but once I decide that this or that one does not match, it would be helpful to get rid of them. Otherwise, I must scroll through page after page every time to figure out which ones I have already dealt with. Am I missing something here?

It is just an aid to indicate possible matches and records for that person. I don't think there is any way to stop the display. However if you go to Full tree view they are not shown.

When I open my GR tree, there are numbers on the people. The numbers indicate possible matches. Some of them are not "mine" and I would like to remove them. Can I? If so, how?
