Error description

  • IBM InfoSphere Data Architect allows to show all elements which
    have any relationsips with a target entity by bringing those
    elements to a data model diagram where the target entity
    resides.
    This functionality is triggered by the invocation of "Show
    Related Elements" command from a context menu which is available
    for elements of data model diagrams.
    Being invoked on a child entity of a many-to-many relationship
    "Show Related Elements" command fails to bring the relationship
    object and the parent entity to the diagram.
