Query View Extension Relationships

Is there a way to add query relationships to a query view extension? I want to join my extended ID fields to other views, but I don't see it in the spec. I'd rather not do another query view spec as it would add an unnecessary layer to the ad-hoc query interface.

    Because you are simply amending an existing view you won't be able to add relationships through a query view extension. As far as I am aware you can only add or remove fields from the view, effectively amending the underlying select statement that forms the view.

    I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do, but if the query view you are extending is not available as child node already then I think you can either raise it as an enhancement request. Or you can create a duplicate of the query view that has the relationship you want to have. If you do the latter make sure you change the ID in the spec or you will overwrite the existing query view.
