A Segment-ology TIDBIT
I was entering a ThruLines line of descent into my Common Ancestor Spreadsheet, when I noted an error in the Match’s Tree. The Tree and ThruLines were at 6C. When I inserted the missing generation in my Tree, the relationship changed to 6C1R. As soon as I clicked back to the Match, the ThruLines was gone! AncestryDNA now *knows* the correct relationship, and since it was beyond 7 generations for one of us, they won’t show it.
Heads up. Copy or screen-shot before you lose the ThruLines link. I guess in a pinch, I could go back to my tree, take out the generation I added, and ”reincarnate” the ThruLines link. Sometimes you have to think like a computer…

James, Note: with that hack you can add some 6C1R and 6C2R Matches to your “inventory”, but you cannot get any closer on the Match’s side. ThruLines has a limit of 7 generations on *both* lines back to the Common Ancestor. Jim

I have “played” with reattaching the DNA to parents or grandparents, in private Ancestry trees of direct ancestors only, to try “tricking” Thrulines into adding a generation or two. Results have been mixed.
