How did I make a work a key work for another work and how do I undo it?

    I knew positions, arguments, etc. could have "key works." What I did not quite realize was that works could have key works. I figured this out one day when I was looking at a work and noticed it was listed as a key work for another work. That was accidental and I want to undo it but I don't know how.

    Where are you seeing one work showing as key work of the other? One work should only be showing under another one in the tree if it is a child work. The other place I know of is the lower-right part of the Works tab; it is possible for a work to be listed under "Records have this as key work" if the listed record is displaying the current one. Now I know I need to change the name of that column to say "Records Displaying/Having This As Key Work".

    If it is something other than those, please send a screenshot.

    It's in the lower right part of the works tab. The listed work is displaying the current one but it's also displaying a bunch of other works and none of those other works are listed as key works.

      That is the way it is intended to work (if I understood correctly). A work should be listed there only if it is displaying the current work. I just need to change the column heading to say "Records Displaying or Having This as Key Work" to reflect what is actually being listed there; that will be fixed in the next release.
