ER/STUDIO OVERVIEW > APPLICATION DESIGN Application Design The following diagram shows the functional relationship among ER/Studio Enterprise components and with the software components of a typical development system. Metadata Files Import Metadata Import/Export Wizards Export Metadata Files Application Interface ER/Studio Enterprise Components ER/Studio Reverse Engineer Compare & Merge DBMS Forward Engineer Check-in Repository Server Check-out The ER/Studio interface is divided into several tabbed windows that let you navigate and customize your workspace. ER/Studio includes context-sensitive toolbars, menus, intuitive icons, keyboard commands, and other resources to help you work efficiently. ER/Studio's user interface has a standard Windows look and feel. For a detailed description of the internal data structure of the ER/Studio application and the Repository, you can look at Metadata models (DM1 files), usually found in the following directories: • Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ Embarcadero\ERStudio_X.X\Sample Models • Windows Vista: C:\ProgramData\Embarcadero\ERStudio_X.X\Sample Models DBMS EMBARCADERO TECHNOLOGIES > ER/STUDIO® 8.0.3 USER GUIDE 14 SQL Source Code DDL
ER/STUDIO OVERVIEW > APPLICATION INTERFACE For information on enhanced UI features, click a number in the image below: 1 ER/Studio has an enhanced user interface that is similar to Windows XP with intuitive icons. 2 The name of the active model, with or without the full path to the file, can be displayed on the title bar of the main application window. This is an option you can set in Tools > Options > Application > Application Defaults. 3 ER/Studio displays the active model in bold type, so that you can easily see which model or submodel you are working on. 4 The Data Model tab of the Data Model Explorer displays indexes, relationships, and attributes as separate nodes. 5 The Data Model tab of the Data Model Explorer displays schema objects like packages, procedures, functions, materialized views, auxiliary tables, and triggers as separate nodes. 6 The Overview Window lets you navigate large Data Models. 7 The Zoom Window helps you focus on the details of a specific area of a large, reduced diagram. 8 You can dock toolbars anywhere in the ER/Studio user interface.
