Show schema as part of the table name in database diagrams

Post by evan.morgoch » Wed 11 Jan 2017 19:44

I'm trying out Studio Express for SQL Server to create some database diagrams for some of my small databases. However, I can't seem to find any way to have my table display their schema. Ideally I'd like to have my tables named as "schema.TableName" in the diagram.

Is there a way to make this happen?

We will fix this issue in one of the next product builds and will notify you once it's available for downloading.

Thanks alexa. For now, I guess I'll use containers to group/surround my tables to indicate which schema they belong to.

Hi Alexa,

I just updated to the most recent build (5.4.275 express), and see that all my tables are now prefaced with the schema name.

Thanks for this. It really helps. Reviewing the change logs though, I never saw it mentioned.
