Changing the default center/focus of the tree

Question

The default center of the tree is myself as the creator of the tree, however I'd like my deceased grand father to be the center of the tree by default; how could I change that?

Answer 1

You have two options.

1. Go to your grandfather select the invite button then create a link and copy said link. go to your account remove the tree, them past the link to open the tree and add the tree to your account.
   This method will let you keep the edit history of the tree, but it will still say you founded the tree.
2. Download the tree then reupload it to your account and select your grandfather when asked to choose yourself.
   This method will not keep the edit history of the tree, but it will show your grandfather as the founder.

Thanks. What a workaround! I see how this could work, but I didn't try it because I find it too risky to "remove the tree" as one of the steps.
In addition, to "invite" someone in the tree, they must be still alive (which could be changed temporarily in the tree).
Also I believe downloading and re-uploading the tree would lose all the photos in the tree.
