Hi all,

at first: The tool is great! ;-))

I'm working with pgadmin4 during design and managing phase and it's functions are like the well known swiss army knife.

I didn't find a list for ideas, so I hope this is the right way to contact you:

I've got some ideas for making ERD diagrams easier to read/understand:

Is it possible, to add some viewing options to the ERD-tool?

For tables:

- option to hide the schema name (mostly it is not needed to understand the diagram)

- option to show schema / tablename as full qualified name in one row (shortens the table boxes)

- option to highlight the table name / full qualified name

- option to hide all fields except the primarykey and fields needed for relations?

For relations:

- When clicking on a relation, a box with its definition, maybe changeable/editable?

Many thanks for your work!

Best regards,

Berthold Humkamp
