Children vs. all children of related elements

[Fabian Knoll]

Hi,

I do not understand the difference of the relationship type “Children” and “All Children” (see attached screenshot) if I am editing a profile to generate children of elements of an special stereotype. In my case activities have objects as children. If I am using “Children” for the relationship type the direct children are found. For “All Children” nothing is found. My assumption is that “All Children” is transitiv but as mentioned, nothing is found.

Regards,
Fabian

It took me a while, but i finally remembered the difference.
‘Children’ is just what is says: the immediate children of an element.
‘All Children’ was created at a customer’s request, and returns all the chilred, their children recursively to the bottom of the tree..
…except that it wan’t working properly in the latest release, and it didn’t seem to be in test case anywhere:-(
So, it will be fixed in the next maintenance release (3.4.4) which will be available shortly.
