Keeping a layout style fixed
« on: April 26, 2004, 07:19:54 am »
Can someone point me where in the docs I can find info on how I can keep the my digram layout static whenever I do a sync b/w the model and the RDBMS?

I see the options layering, layout options, etc. under Diagram Properties->Set layout style.  Certainly, I have overlooked the option that keeps my current entities, etc. in the same location each time, eh?

Thanks.
Michael

G'day g'day,

To solve that problem, we've setup a package and 1 diagram in that package dedicated to importing DDL and synchronizing.  We've setup other packages and diagrams dedicated to layout (and different views) of our database model.

Very important(!!!): always select and display the diagram dedicated to DDL importing before doing your DDL synchronization.

Cheers and best regards.

Excellent!

In leiu of a button, your work around did the trick and solved my dilemma (and saved me much time after each sync)

Thanks so much, it is a big help to me.
