It's not a bug, it's a feature 😉

Thank you for reporting this bug. I was able to reproduce this behavior. It is not necessary to have all the options enabled. Furthermore you can reduce the query by selecting e.g. a single location. Otherwise the topology might show up with bazillions of devices. So, in my case this is sufficient:

  • Use a fresh coordinate group, since the bug only occurs for devices without fixed coordinates.
  • Show Cables: Yes
  • Show Neighbors: Yes
  • Straight Cables: Yes
  • Optional: Location: Any you like

In particular, it is the combination of Show Neighbors and Straight Cables. Setting any of them to "No" does not produce the bug.
