ER/STUDIO OVERVIEW > APPLICATION INTERFACE Macros The Macro tab of the Data Model Explorer lets you add, edit, rename, delete, and run macros. You can also create folders in which to store macros for easier reference. ER/Studio installs several sample macros in the Sample Macros folder. These macros are described in more detail in the Using the SAX Basic Macro Editor section of this documentation. Repository The Repository tab is an interface to the ER/Studio Enterprise Portal. It lets you view and access the objects that are stored in the Repository. NOTE: This feature is not supported in the Developer Edition of ER/Studio. Data Model Window The Data Model window displays the logical and physical data model. You can access functionality through the menus, shortcut menus, and tool bar buttons. The Data Model window lets you move diagram objects, copy and paste them in a new location, resize the diagram objects, and change their colors. The Data Model Window also displays physical schema objects like Procedures, Functions, Packages, Auxiliary Tables, Tablespaces, Materialized Views, and Synonyms. This presents a visual representation of object dependencies for impact analysis. If you right-click a relationship, ER/Studio opens a shortcut menu that lets you modify the relationship between entities or tables. EMBARCADERO TECHNOLOGIES > ER/STUDIO® 8.0.3 USER GUIDE 20
ER/STUDIO OVERVIEW > APPLICATION INTERFACE In the Data Model Window, ER/Studio displays useful information about each object in your Data Model in the Pop-up Windows, Zoom Window, and Overview Window. Pop-up Windows Pop-up windows can display brief definitions or the DDL of each object in your Data Model. When you hover the mouse pointer over any object briefly, ER/Studio displays a pop-up window. The popup in the example above displays the object definition, “The Medication Dispension.....” To display the entity definition as in the screenshot above, click View > Cursor Popup Help Options > Schema Object Help and then select Definition. You can create optional definitions on the Definition tab of the object editor. ER/Studio adds the definition as a comment when you generate the SQL code.
