Hello,

I have some questions about Place Index.

- What's the difference between references and subordinates numbers?

- Why are present empty nodes in Place Index?

- Why are not the same numbers in Place Index and place detail (references)?

Here we go then:

'References' are the number of links to a place including 'child' places. 'Subordinates' refer to 'child' places, the word 'children' did not seem appropriate in the report when when referring to places.

I think 'empty nodes' are parent places with child place(s) that have no references, the latter are suppressed in the report, however when the parent is processed it is not known that the child place will be suppressed.

The reference count in the index does not include its parent , whereas the place detail shows all references including the parent. This makes sense to me Smile
