TUTORIALS > DIAGRAM NAVIGATION AND AESTHETICS Attachments tab Bind an external piece of information or attachment to the transformation. You can also remove an attachment from an object, override an attachment binding’s default value, or change the position of a bound attachment. To override the value of the attachment you have moved to the Selected Attachments grid, double-click the Value field of the target attachment. ER/Studio opens the Value Override Editor or a list depending on the attachment datatype. Attachments are created in the Attachments folder of the Data Dictionary and must be applied to the default before they will display on this tab. Diagram Navigation and Aesthetics The fruit a powerful data modeling product like ER/Studio bears are its diagrams. To assist with the creation of presentation-quality diagrams that are easy to navigate and are aesthetically pleasing, ER/Studio offers progressive diagram Auto Layout and Navigation utilities that also helps you to clean up complex diagrams. Modelers should spend time solving complex database or business data model problems, not forcing boxes and lines to look a certain way. Navigating the Diagram To demonstrate some of ER/Studio’s layout and navigation utilities, we’ll import a sample SQL script provided with ER/Studio. 1 Close any files you have open. 2 Click File > New.
