Created attachment 146256 [details] IDE log
I created two entities with one to many relationship. Bill and BillItem. Create a property Bill bill inside the Bill entity. Then the yellow bulb appears, but selecting Bidirectional Many to One relationship, although brings the usual dialog for creating a field in the Bill entity, do not create the annotation in BillItem entity and also do not create any field with annotations in the Bill entity.
Correction: Create a property Bill bill inside the BillItem entity(NOT Bill entity as erroneously written in previous comment).
either fixed(there was some fixes in the area) or some important steps are mixed/missed. tried NewEntity and NewEntityItem, add NewEntity bill to NewEntityItem. invoke "create bidirectional manytoone hint dialog appeared - press ok now I have @OneToMany(mappedBy = "bill") private List<NewEntityItem> newEntityItems; in NewEntity.
