[Gramps-devel] Confusing assocations window?

[V. D. <mic...@gm...>]

Trevor suggested to move this discussion from the bug tracker
(http://bugs.gramps-project.org/view.php?id=300) to the mailing list,
since this is not really a bug.

Here is my original bug report:

> Summary: Confusing Association Window
> Description: 

> Something about using the associations tab (in the person editor) is
> not clear to me: I edit person A, add an association, select the
> relationship 'godfather' (which is the example given by gramps), and
> then choose person B as "Person" in the Person reference editor
> window.
> 
> What did I just do? Did I just say: "A is godfather of B" or rather
> "A's godfather is B?"
> 
> I don't think this is something we should leave to the user who would
> have to make a choice and stick with it. That would be very confusing.
> 
> Can those windows be adjusted so that it is clear how to make an
> association in gramps?

How do you understand the current situation? And how would you improve
it?
