Description:
If a new diagram is created and there are not yet any tables in the diagram Workbench crashes when Model -> Relationships -> Connect to columns is selected. If there is at least one object in the diagram it does not crash.

How to repeat:
Create new diagram and select Model -> Relationships -> Connect to columns.

Thank you for the bug report. I didn't get the crash however thr below messages are printed:

** Message: item_activated: 0x28d5cf0 -> 'plugin:wb.view.setRelationshipNotation:fromcolumn'
** Message: unhandled message 4: wb.view.setRelationshipNotation finished in 0.00s

As it turns out, now that I have used connect to columns it is the default. If I create a new diagram and try to change it to another relationship setting it seg faults. But, yes, I do get that same message:
Message: unhandled message 4: wb.view.setRelationshipNotation finished in 0.00s

this has been fixed in release 5.2.4

An entry was added to the 5.2.4 changelog:

If a new empty EER diagram was created, then Model, Relationship Notation, Connect to Columns was selected, MySQL Workbench generated the following messages:

** Message: item_activated: 0x28d5cf0 ->
'plugin:wb.view.setRelationshipNotation:fromcolumn'
** Message: unhandled message 4: wb.view.setRelationshipNotation finished in 0.00s

These messages were not generated if the EER diagram contained at least one table.
