If the database has got a relatively small number of tables, there is no problem with arranging tables. But once you create a relatively big database arranging it manually becomes painful. It would be really cool if the auto arrangement would group tables based on whether they are related or not. In this case, it would product a visualization of a graph consisting of a set small islands of strongly related tables.
Hi Olzhas,
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it.
The improvement to the auto-arrange feature is already in our backlog. We will let you know if we have any updates on this feature.
Cheers.
Hi,
We’ve rolled out a new version of auto-arrange that’s much more aware of the table’s relationships.
Please give it a try and let us know what you think!
Problem:
- After using Auto-arrange → Left to right, the tables are placed too close to each other, making the diagram hard to read.
- Tables that belong to the same schema are not aligned consistently, which makes the diagram less organized.
Suggestions:
- Add a setting to control spacing between tables (horizontal & vertical) when using Auto-arrange.
- Add an option to align tables of the same schema in one vertical column (from top to bottom), while arranging schemas from left to right.
