What is new in XTG Data Modeller 2.3.1

Export image - menu Report / Export image - export to PNG, BMP and EMF formats     PNG = Portable Network Graphics ( true-color, better compression than GIF )     BMP = Windows Bitmap     EMF = Enhanced Meta File - export entire model, selected entities or group of print-grid pages - exporting the print-grid pages: enter the filename, e.g. image.png, and the group of image_x_y.png files will be generated, e.g. image_1_1.png, image_2_1.png, image_1_2.png, image_2_2.png Save Layout, Load Layout - menu Tools - it saves the [x,y] positions of entities and relationships to the file - useful especially after repeated reengineering - tip: you can save more layouts for one model: one for normal editing and the other one for printing of model compressed to one page in 'entity' view mode Escape physical names - menu Settings / Model Settings - you can enter how to escape physical names in the SQL script output, e.g. "NAME" or [NAME] Resizable dialogs - dialog with grid are resizable (Attribute repository, Browse tables, Edit entity) - their size and position is saved in INI - useful for users with high screen resolution - you can see more rows in a grid ON DELETE - combobox on relationship detail dialog (double-click on relatioship control point) - the various database servers have a various set of possible 'on delete actions': CASCADE SET NULL SET DEFAULT RESTRICT NO ACTION - we added the default value "--- nothing ---"   = no 'on delete' rule is generated ON UPDATE - the same options as ON DELETE BUGFIXIES Reengineering of noname relationships - FIXED. 'default value' of attribute is not saved to XER file. - FIXED. When a model is printed in black and white, there is no way to distinguish a yellow/gray PK/FK relationship. Both print as squares. - FIXED: PK/FK relationships are distinguished by double/single rectangle now.
