The entity properties editor allows you to edit all important
table (entity) characteristics: its name, note and column
(attribute) list. Moreover, "indexes"
and "triggers" buttons provide an easy
way to edit objects associated with the current table.
The program allows you to assign the following characteristics
to each table column: its name, data type, column size, default
value, nullable property, comment and additional attributes like
the text of the check constraint or some other DBMS-specific
information.
If there is a connection to the database, DTM Data Modeler allows
you to select the data type from the list box. Otherwise you should
type it manually.
By default, migrated fields are not available for editing. If
you want to change this option and make them editable, use the
corresponding checkbox in the settings dialog box. When the
relationship that created migrated columns is deleted, these
columns are also removed from the child entity.
