    Create relation to parent in different Model Subset

    I know I can create relations by using the toolbar and dragging, but I'm trying to create a relation to a table in a different Model Subset. I could certainly add the parent to my Subset, create the relation and remove the parent again, but I wonder if there is another way.

    Here is what I tried:

    • Create a column in Child-table
    • Right-Click "Relation" in "Model Objects" and select "New Relation"
    • Select the "Parent" in "Property Browser"

    I can not select a column though. I think that's the reason why the Status of the Relation is "Disabled", and I can not change this option.

    What else can I do? Is the "New Relation" menu item useless at the moment?

    Thanks in advance,
    Regards, Peter
