Diagram Field Order
« on: March 15, 2006, 09:19:33 am »
Hi,
I've imported tables from MS SQL Server 2000 and when looking at the columns/attributes the field order matches that found in the db itself.  When I drag a table out to a diagram it  resorts the order into an alphabetic order.  I want the diagram to retain the order in the db, keeping our primary keys at the top - is it possible to change how they are shown on a diagram?
Thanks for any help.

Uncheck Tools/Options/Objects/Sort Features Alphabetically. It is checked by default.

You might also want to adjust Group Attributes by Stereotype and Group Operations by Stereotype on the same dialog, to suit your purposes, although these may be more applicable to class diagrams than data models.
No, you can't have it!
