The following is a follow-up of issue 92782. I believe that parts of the
confusion in that issue were caused by the problem described in this issue here.
- open the attached database document
- Tools / Relationships ...
=> the relation designer opens. Note there already exists a relationship between
left.ID1 and right.ID
- Insert / New Relation ...
=> the "Relations" dialog opens
=> "Tables involved" is pre-filled with "left" and "right", which is fine
so far
=> "Fields involved" is pre-filled with the fields from the *existing*
relationship
I claim that this doesn't make sense: If the user wants to create a second
relation between two tables, then why should she want to re-use the fields from
the first, existing relation? As issue 92782 shows, this can be confusing.
I suggest that when a new relation is created, the fields list in the dialog is
empty, so the user can really create a relation from scratch.
