The Orphan Explicit Relationship view contains a group of Dynamic View reports which identities definitions that have a incomplete connection. This means that the definition does not have a "to" or "from" reference.

Explicit relationships are definitions that represent a relationship. These relationships are used with representational consistency, represented by a link type on a diagram or box-in-box relationship.

The view contains the list of all found definitions listed by type. You can sort the content using the Sort menu item. The contents can be sorted in ascending and descending order.

To refresh a view, right click and select Refresh. For details on creating the view definition, see Locating orphan explicit relationships.

The view is retained in the Explorer pane for future sessions for the same encyclopedia. It can be removed by right-clicking and selecting Remove.

For details about where the definition types are employed, open the View definition and Dynamic View Report for the desired definition. There are two reports for each type, one is related to the "from" reference and the other to the "to" reference.

The Description field contains the purpose of the report, properties, line and host diagram types which make use of the type, and diagram types which make use of the type for box-in-box relationships.
