Description:
If I have two tables - table1 & table2 which have a relationship between them say 1:n such table1 -> table2, a line is drawn between them.

Normally if you mouseover this line, it highlights the line & the two columns it connects across both tables.

Now if you change the Visibility Settings of this relationship line to "Draw Split".
Now when you mouseover the split region in the first table, it highlights both the columns. But when you mouseover the split region in the second table, it does not highlight both the columns as it normally should. Ideally this should be working fine.

Demo: http://kimag.es/share/69176275.png
The mouse is denoted by black arrow. 

1) In the first part of the image, I've taken the mouse over the split in the left table and it highlights the columns in both.

2) In the second part of the image, I've taken the mouse over the split in the right table and nothing seems to happen. This ideally should work BOTH WAYS.

How to repeat:
Just create two tables. Draw a relationship between them and change its visibility setting to Draw Split. Bug should repeat all the time.

Suggested fix:
Two suggestions:

1. Put a mouseover effect on both sides of a draw split line

2. Increase the mouseover area on both sides a bit more. A few pixels around the split would make the effect look smoother.

Thank you for the bug report. Verified just as described with recent 5.1.18 on Mac OS X.

Too much effort for a rarely used feature.
