Ability to identify identifying and non-identifying relationships from DDL

Saif Terai 7 years ago updated by Rafał Strzaliński (Senior Engineer) 6 years ago 1

When reverse engineering from a DDL, a feature to automatically represent an identifying relationship by a solid line and a non-identifying relationship by a broken (dashed) line would be useful. Currently Vertabelo does not do this.

Hi,


Vertabelo marks non mandatory references using a circle on the PK side of the reference line.

Here is a an example:

We already use dashed line for "shortcuts" representation. Here are more information about managing large diagrams using subject areas and shortcuts: https://www.vertabelo.com/documentation/database-model-elements/areas
