true; if you try to define them with a database kernel version >= 7.3.0.21 
SQL Studio shows you only the explicitly defined Indexes as suggestions.
This is a bug (and will be fixed).
The workaround is to enter an appropriate SQL statement instead.

after we pointed out that a primary key is _never_ an index
this error text is a bit misleading . It should tell that
"it is not possible to define an index on a primary key".
