DESCRIPTION

A mod adding a search & highlight function as well as a full screen toggle to the Family Tree...

Release Candidate 2RC2 Update:

Removed a conflict with All Scenarios. They can both be used without issue now.

Search bar properly resets to "Search..." when switching family trees.

Hey everyone, been working on this for the new pack. With the family tree becoming much more useful with the latest update, I figured we could use a better panel for it.Because the family trees can get pretty expansive now, I've added a search bar to the bottom left of the window and an expand button to the bottom right. Clicking the expand button will make the Family Tree panel fully fill your game window, making it easier to see more of your family tree in one go.

Unlike my other search mods, this one does not narrow the results. Instead, it highlights the sims that match the search with a bright green outline, as seen below. This makes it easier to check if a sim is part of a particular family tree and easier to switch to any particular sim's family tree.In this example, I've searched for "ro" which matched 3 of the sims in the family tree.

Any issues, please let me know so I can fix them before official release.
