@davepatrick Hi! What is previous testing?

[mKay]

The selectable status is prepopulated with these options. I have the same.

[Kirill_Lem]

@mKay That’s because this relation stores all meanings that you put into it. If you need clear relation, you need to create new one.

[davepatrick]

They are not meanings that I have put into them. They are built into the object.

Did you every add those status in a different type or page for testing purposes? If you did, they are stored as one possible value of that relation as each relation is presently global and does not limit to a type. The team said they’ll work on adding type qualifier to relations as requested here

Ability to limit the scope of a relation

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The add relation pop-up in the create type view lists all the relations across all object types, even the ones such as the camera, camera aperture, camera exposure & rotten tomato scores, etc. [image] These relations are tightly coupled to an objects type. A rotten tomato score is not applicable to any type except a media or a web series. Same goes for the camera exposure relations which is only applicable for the image type. Sin…

So that should solve this problem by allowing user to create separate status relation for each types.

[davepatrick]

I never added those statuses anywhere. They were already there with the built in objects.

Is it possible that you added those values to any other relation?

[davepatrick]

No. They were there before I even added anything.

[sambouwer]

@mKay and @davepatrick are there any other Relations that seem to have prepopulated values that you did not enter to Anytype yourself? @Kirill_Lem is it possible to see when these options for this Relation where added in the Anytype file system or database?
