Jamie,
I have found that the behavior of the Modeler is sometimes linked to
the order in which you create ObjEntities and DbEntities.
I usually create the DbEntities first, then create the ObjEntities,
then create the relationships. Once I do this then I select the "sync"
button (Hover = "Sync Dependent ObjEntities with DbEntities") in the
DbEntity's dialog window (I do this for each DbEntity that I have
created).
This usually synchronizes the ObjEntities relationships with the
DbEntities relationships.
If I make significant changes to the DbEntities, then I always follow
up with using the sync button for *each* DbEntity.
The only time this has not worked for me is when I have made some sort
of mistake with defining the DbEntities.
There may be an easier way to do all this, but this has worked for me
so far.

Hi Everyone
I am really struggling to use the Cayenne Modelling tool. It seems
whenever I create an ObjectEntity from the DBEntity the
relationships are not always propagated. This happens even when I
follow the ARTIST tutorial. I tried both Cayenne 3.0M6 and Cayenne
2.0.4 and the same behaviour is observed. Is this a known bug or am
I likely doing something horribly wrong?
Thank in advance
Jamie
