Yes, I know now how this happened. It comes from
http://www.gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=3155
which I don't understand. There is an option in the dialog to select one of four types of arrows:
ancestor -> descendant
ancestor <- descendant
ancestor <-> descendant
ancestor -- descendant
So the user has all possibilities to choose what's best.
So, why this change?
