How to show dead members in the tree differently?

The only difference I see in the tree is the gender. It seems reasonable to me to see the late ancestors in some unique form.

Deceased family members should have their names and info in grey print, versus bolder black for living members.
This is only true if you have put in their birth and death date information.
This is the only difference that I'm aware of.

Thanks and well, in my tree there are ancestors from e.g. 15th century and there is no way to find their birth/death dates :-(
"This is the only difference that I'm aware of." If this is the case, then the condition should be dedicated from the status living/not living. Probably a tip for programmers?
I just noticed that if you click on an individual in the family tree and then go to the left panel to where you can "edit details" there is a checkbox that you can UN-check for those that are not living, "This person is living" - checked=yes, unchecked=no. Regardless of whether you have the dates put in it'll grey their names out.
Yes, that's something I haven't nonticed - obviously not very bold. I would prefer if some details (e.g. birth, marriage, death) would also be introduced by tipical icons and deceased members would have different "box-shape" (differently framed, with special background etc.)
