Ancestry - new filters for DNA matches
Looking at my DNA matches today, I get a popup which says "new filters for DNA matches. You can use multiple filters at a time, including a new filter for shared DNA, to find matches more quickly."
There is an improved "Shared DNA filter" which in addition to selecting Close or Distant matches, now allows you to enter a custom centimorgan range. I think this will please those people who miss the old page system.
And in the Groups filter, you can select multiple groups to see matches which you have added to more than one group. So you could use one colour for maternal side and another for paternal side and then use the other colours for groups on both sides, allowing for a lot more than the old limit of 24 groups, although I suppose you would have to be careful how you label each group to avoid confusion. I am certainly going to try this out now.
