What’s The Bug?
I turned a Set into a Collection.
In the result I’ve got a Collection with lots and lots unwanted connections in the Graph to Objects that shouldn’t be connected to it.
And there is seemingly no way to undo that. 
How To Reproduce It
- Have a (first) Collection that contains a Set as well as some Objects.
- Filter the Set for some of the Objects inside the (first) Collection.
- Now convert the Set into a second Collection!
Image or Video
Uff, while recording a video that shows the effect in a test Space … because of another bug it affected my main Space!!!
Now I have a big problem … therefore no video!
The Expected Behavior
I expected to have a Collection that shows the same Objects a the original Set did before the transformation of that Set into a Collection.
I don’t expect to have MANY links from the new Collection all MANY other Objects!
Maybe it’s the presence of the View “All” that caused the problem?
- I can’t say no longer, I’ve messed up too much meanwhile. And I will not repeat such a test!
What I did in detail:
I have a very big Collection “Schnellnotizen”.
Many Objects in it are tagged as “Knoten”.
I have also a Set called “Knoten (S)” that is also in the Collection “Schnellnotizen”. The Set grasps all Objects tagged as “Knoten”.
My attempt was, to move all these so tagged Objects out of the Collection “Schnellnotizen” into a new Collection “Knoten”.
I’ve thought it would be a smart move to simply transform the existing Set “Knoten (S)” in a Collection.
I’ve further thought, this new Collection would link only to Objects tagged as “Knoten” (this was the filter for the Set).
But in result of this transformation (Set into Collection) I got a Collection that links to some hundred totally irrelevant Objects and my Graph is now a pure chaos!
Additional Context
Using the history to undo this transformation and restoring the old Set didn’t solve the problem.
Now I have my old Set back, yes, but there are still these hundreds of unwanted connections in the Graph, leading to irrelevant Objects.
I can’t see any way to undo the chaos, except deleting the Set and built it completely new from scratch .
Also I don’t understand why this has happen?
What does the command “transform into Collection” do - or what is it supposed to do?
I not even see a way to “unlink” the unwanted Objects from the Set manually!
In the restored Set’s Flow is no option do unlink an Object from it. There is no right click menu or something else.
And in the Sets’s Grid does the right click menu not contain an “unlink” option.
The irrelevant Objects not even appear in the Set’s Grid - off course not, because the Set’s filter shows only Objects tagged as “Knoten” - the relevant ones.
How can I now disconnect / unlink the irrelevant Objects from that Set?
