Add 75% Zoom

Terris Linenbach 2 years ago • updated 2 years ago • 2

The zoom drop-down levels are 25-50-100-200 and 400 .. I often want 75. I never want 400.

Pattern for naming objects

Aleksandra Machewka 11 years ago • updated by fed 2 years ago • 3
It would be a handy feature to allow user to define patterns for default object names, eg. primary keys. Currently, PK is formed using pattern "{objectName}_pk". Such pattern could be defined by user, having access to variables like {objectName}, {objectNameSingular} (for objects named in plural form). For FK, source and destination object names could be accessible, so user can form default FK name as "FK_{sourceObjectName}_{destinationObjectName}". I'm aware, that this can be done via explicitly naming PKs and FKs, but such feature would be useful when model is big and many relations exist.

Automatic diagram layout

It would be nice to be able to do some automatic diagram layout. For the whole diagram or for selected area.

It would be very helpful if the folder and files structure can also be shareable. I can share documents but my teammates see them disorganised.

Vertabelo would be a must-have for Rails projects if Vertabelo generated Rails migrations.

Add support for AWS Redshift super data type

Paul Tipper 3 years ago • updated by Adam Mościcki 3 years ago • 1

Vertabelo does not appear to support the AWS Redshift SUPER data type (see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/query-super.html#dynamic-typing-lax-processing). The SUPER data type is not offered in the type dialog in the Table Properties pane, and if you try to import an SQL file with instances of the SUPER data type, it causes the import to fail.

Please add support for the AWS Redshift SUPER data type.

Add user defined data types or domains

Robert Clark 10 years ago • updated by Laiba Shahid 3 years ago • 10

When creating our databases with thousands of fields we use domains / user data types. This allows us to use a specific defined data type, like "ID Key" for all primary keys, to ensure they are all uniformly the same data type. Additionally it would allow us to change the data types of all the fields that would apply without having to go to each field manually and changing it. This is a must for us to purchase a database modeling product.

Add option to hide all types and only display field names

Matt Kuntz 10 years ago • updated by Chris Waters 3 years ago • 2
We had an issue recently where, while going over a model, people kept getting confused or stuck on types as we were working on it. It would be nice to be able to hide types while editing and on export.

Also, I saw another request for hiding FKs, which fits in nicely.

add a global search through objects and descriptions

Ugo Peltier 4 years ago • updated by Grzegorz Małyska 4 years ago • 1

I would be a great enhancement to be able to search all ERD we have access to for a table/view/column name and description, to return a list of matching description/name with a pointer to table/view.


we split our data across several models, database engines etc. It would help our team to locate information more easily.

currently, extracting xml of each model , consolidating data and serving to users to search through this list. would be great if this function were directly available on vertabelo.

fields/column color and formatting

Sergio Sardo 8 years ago • updated by Jarosław Błąd (CEO) 4 years ago • 2

It could be very nice to have the opportunity to change font color or other formats (bold, italic,...) for specific fields.

For example I have a large db with a set of columns which repeats in any important table, and I'd like to have these fields/columns greyed out or in different format, just to remember these fields cannot be changed in a single table without breaking a standard
