ER/Studio - Embarcadero Technologies Product Documentation

AUTOMATING ER/STUDIO >
Here is a more detailed explanation. When you edit the entity name and change it to Entity1, you also automatically
add a prefix to the name. By modifying the case statement in the body of the UpdateEntityHandler function in the
manner shown above, the entity name becomes ERSEntity1.
Notes
• When ER/Studio starts, it reads in all the update event handler functions from the file ERSUpdateHandlers.bas.
Modifications to these functions while the application is running have no effect. You must restart ER/Studio for the
modifications to take effect.
• A user cannot declare a specific object type (for example, Entity) in the update event handler functions. All
objects must be declared as the generic Object type.

Adding Macros to GUI Modeling Menus
The Add/Remove Macros dialog box lets you add shortcuts to macros that you want to quickly access from various
places in ER/Studio. This dialog box is supported from the Main Menu, as well as the diagram, Entity, View, and
Relationship shortcut menus. You can add up to ten macros for each object.
Notes
• The point at which you open the dialog box, is where ER/Studio adds the shortcut. For example, if you right-click
an entity and then click Add/Remove Macro Shortcuts, ER/Studio opens the Add/remove Macros Dialog box and
indicates Entity in the title bar.
• You can only add ten macros for each object.
