Thread: PgAccess schema-diagram cleanup
Here's a patch to clean up some issues with the schema diagram
editor in pgaccess. This patch:
* allows schema window to be resized up to full screen size
* autosizes window on schema open
* allows multiselect of tables (by shift click) to allow
dragging of sets of tables
deletion of sets of tables
* fixes a bug in table deletion code that did not delete
links to that table properly
* changes link lines to be continous, so they export better
via postscript->pstoedit->xfig
It does not change the name of the feature from schema, as I
asked about on HACKERS. I'm off for a week's vacation starting
tomorrow, so I probably won't see any commentary on this until
Monday the 24th

I have bounced this message to the pgaccess maintainer, and to the interfaces list. I would prefer Constantin to apply the patch to his version, and issue a new release. > Here's a patch to clean up some issues with the schema diagram > editor in pgaccess.

Wohoo, looks like this was applied. We will ship the new pgaccess version with 7.1. > Here's a patch to clean up some issues with the schema diagram > editor in pgaccess.
