Highlight DNA inheritance patterns on Ancestry.com family trees.
This Google Chrome extension for Ancestry.com highlights any of the 3 non-autosomal DNA inheritance patterns: X-chromosome, Y-chromosome, and Mitochondrial. It works with both Pedigree (horizontal) and Family View (vertical) trees. In Pedigrees, the highlights indicate the inheritance pattern for ANCESTORS of the selected peron. In Family View trees, the highlights indiate the inheritance pattern for DESCENDANTS.
To use it, just click the icon to activate it while on an Ancestry.com tree, then click the button for the inheritance pattern you'd like to see. To remove the highlights, just click the same button again.
As this is a beta version of the extension, please let me know if you have any trouble or spot any bugs!

- (2023-09-30) Tracy Drane: When I try to use it, I get a notification that it only works on Ancestry.com - when I'm literally on Ancestry.com. I remember it working when I first installed it but now it no longer does.

- (2023-03-14) Paul Unterweiser: Installed it with Brave browser (a Chrome derivative) and it didn't work. Just said that the extension only works with Ancestry.com while I'm on Ancestry.com. Disappointing.

- (2023-01-14) Jeff Kennedy: Love this extension! This is something I've always wished Ancestry and the other sites would have introduced as native functionality. Every genetic genealogist should have this extension. Thanks for developing this.
