Hi all!

Has anyone tried to set some settings that would disable deleting a child table column when deleting a reference between two tables? I'm using PD 12.

I've tried this two things:
1) When asked about deleting object or symbol I went to Impact... dialog window and selected 'Change event to [Change]' (it was [delete]) on Child table column (Reference -> Reference Join -> Child Table Column).
2) From the same window I went to 'Edit Default Propagation Rules' editor by clicking the third (I believe this is a ruler?) icon. There I changed Triggered Event for Child Table Column on Delete event of Reference Join metaclass from Delete to Change.

Although doing both of these the column in child table that the deleting reference is referring to still gets deleted.

Anyone has any ideas?

Thanks, bye!
