hi there,

i have a problem: i am using this tool since one day, i felt in love with it ! ;-)

but one thing that that is really annoying is the way, foreign keys are displayed at the diagram.. please take a look to my screenshot:

i.imm.io/bS2W.png

the main problem is, the fk-name is always displayed over the whole
table... the table is only viewable when all tables are far away from each other, that takes too much space at all ;(

my suggestion: please show fk-names only, if mouse goes other the FK.

thank you!
michael

Hello,

To switch off displaying the labels please do the following:
1. Select Tools->Options from the main menu. Options window opens.
2. Navigate to the Database Diagram branch.
3. In the Notation subbranch, uncheck the Show Relation Comments option.
Now, relation comments will be displayed only if you move the mouse cursor over the relation.

Should any questions arise, please do not hesitate to contact us.

It will be enough just to create a new diagram or you can remove it from a current diagram by selecting the 'Remove from Diagram' item from the popup menu.
