The image seems fine to me. But that's still a lot of work to do. On
your repo, we can't add table, which really is a missing. The UI to
change a column's name and the one to change its type is not that good.
Can't you show a dialog? they could be really simple one. One with a
textbox and two buttons to rename an object (table, column, and FK), and
one with a combobox and two buttons to select the column's type. That
would be way better than what we already have.
BTW, you probably forgot to "git add" ddforeignkey.xpm,
ddprimarykey.xpm, and ddunique.xpm on your repo. Other than that, I'm
able to compile it on windows and to work a bit on it.
