I tried your program for the first time in the weekend. I like it! Now I'm exploring it, to see if it could fit my modeling needs (at the moment I prefer it to the cumbersome giants as MS Visio, Toad and Oracle Datamodeler). Why? mainly because it is fast and immediate! (that means less work time (and at the beginning also less learning time) --> more productivity --> more gold !).
A few questions:
1) is there a way to NOT show the ": NOT NULL" when adding attributes to an Entity, in the Entity Relationship diagram ? (it is to create a model of my DB where there are ONLY the names for each table, for printing & analyzing purposes).
2) Syles, request: a toolbar with colored buttons that, with only one click, can change the selected table/arrow color (the background or, better, the margin, or even the title background). Or a key combination to do the same. At the moment (with my old modeling programs) I find it faster to color my printed models with StabiloBoss markers...
3) is it possible to select many objects (for example 7 tables) and change the style of all these, without going to properties/style for EACH one of them ?
-) I love the Fast Editor to the right side
4) Could it be possible to have, in the Class Diagram, one more tool: Structure. As class, but with only Attributes (No operations). Or ... is there a way to do it with the already given tools?
