   Yes, exactly that, a very simple one but you able able to scroll the   
   tree around the screen in the same way as Ancestry etc.   I just keep   
   it open on another tab while doing other things.  I've been using it   
   for  over 20 years.  You can edit on it but I just use it as a quick   
   go-to instead of losing my place on my main package. Also has a column   
   listing all the names in your tree. Oh yes, and it's free.
