Tested. I know it is not very logically, but this change increases the speed of view query from 0 to 80ms. The indexed reads are decreased from 721 to 600, but the non indexed reads increases from 1 to 27. I made a lot of tests when i was creating the view, this is the best way. In many cases Firebird handles better left joins (than inner), even it is strange.

Yes, thank you
