Description
When running the distance matrix algorithm on all the features using the "Standard (N x T) distance matrix" type, you get columns corresponding to all target features.
When limiting the number of closest features to k, you get k new columns that do not necessarily match the closest features. I would expect to get:
- columns corresponding to each closest point ID (so the number may be different from k, depending on data distribution)
- and calculation between each input feature and the identified closest features
In the attached screenshot, k=1. Instead of a single column (28) corresponding to feature 0 target, I'd expect more to be added (3,6,8,9,10) as closest points to other inputs. So I have for each input its closest point and not the closest point of the first fetched feature which is neither the minimal distance between the layers.

Did it worked as expected for example in 2.18?

Never used it (came across this while documenting the algorithm). And don't have a 2.18 build anymore.
