how to change a color of a column

Asim Haque 7 years ago updated by Rafał Strzaliński (Senior Engineer) 7 years ago 1

Any way to break up columns in a table by colors. Need to use that feature to differentiate different phases of projects touching the same table.

Add ability to change color of table outline and it's foreign key references in other table

Daniel Arlitt 10 years ago updated by Asim Haque 7 years ago 4
It would be a useful feature if a user could select a different color outline for certain tables in their diagram that have a lot of foreign keys in other tables, especially when reference lines start to overlap. This would help the user to identify all of the tables that reference the colored table and to easily identify if a foreign key reference is missing.

Blog article on dimension types not complete

Mike Christie 7 years ago updated by Mariusz Zakrzewski 7 years ago 1

The article at https://www.vertabelo.com/blog/technical-articles/dimensions-of-dimensions-a-look-at-data-warehousings-most-common-dimensional-table-types is very useful but there are multiple times in the article where content is missing.  For example, under SCD 1 it says this:


"If we look at the data before the change, we’d see this:

If the account type has changed, the data would simply be overwritten:"


However nothing has been added for these two comments so we don't get to see the associated data.


This happens in quite a few places in the article where I'm guessing the writer meant to go back and add images or tables etc but forgot to do it.


Just thought I'd let you know - I'm trying to refresh myself on all things dimensional and have read quite a few of your blog articles and found them very good, but this one disappoints a little in that it is not complete.

Shortcut tables for Academic accounts?

Leonard Armstrong 7 years ago updated by Adam Mościcki 7 years ago 1

I have an Academic account but the icon for creating a shortcut table is not shown and CTRL+K does nothing. (Nor can I drag-and-drop from the table list.)  Are shortcut tables disabled on Academic accounts?

HSQLDB Database schema generation is not correct...

Khurram Shakir 10 years ago updated by Adam Mościcki 7 years ago 9
I created a sample database diagram for HSQLDB 2.3 , The schema generated in SQL is following for a table,

CREATE TABLE Comments (
Id bigint GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY NOT NULL CONSTRAINT Comments_Id,
EntityId bigint NULL,
EntityType varchar(100) NOT NULL,
Subject varchar(200) NOT NULL,
CreationDate timestamp NOT NULL,
UserName varchar(200) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT Id PRIMARY KEY (Id) );

When I tried to run it on HSQL, it is giving me error that "ID" is duplicate, What I found is Constraint should be named something else otherwise HSQL gives error since it is same as column name, if I renamed that constraint ID instead of ID_PK , it is working fine.

2. Also based on HSQL documentation, Primary key can be defined as simply marking as
Id bigint GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY

instead of explicitly define the constraint. please confirm that I am not missing anything and this is bug.
Answer
Hi, 

I've looked on your model and reproduced  error.  Tables "attachment" and "comments" have the same name of primary key constraint. Primary key constraint name must be unique. Please change the name or "Unset" property. Check other tables also.

Hello,

I just added a new column of type boolean with a default value of false. This hasn't been added in the create script. true works instead flawlessly.

Did you think about to add relationship table to that modelling tool? It could improve the database representation.
