Relationship Diagrams-What are your thoughts?

In the last release we introduced a cool tool which allows you to see the structure of your application at a high level. The tool is called "Relationship Diagram". We want to know what you think about this new tool. Please share below!

If this if your first time hearing about this tool, let me tell you how you can play with it. Go to your home page and click on settings in the upper left. Next click on "Application Management" and then under the section titled "Show App Info" click on "Show Relationship Diagram". From here you can rearrange the diagram. Click and drag a table in the diagram to move it to a different place on the page. Once you have rearranged the diagram to your liking, click Save this layout. If you return to the relationship diagram for this app, it will display as you have saved it. If you don't like the layout, click Clear saved layout and refresh the page.

  • Yes whoever last saves it will override the saved version.  There is only one version, its  not "Per User".
  • Thank you! Also, I love this feature. It helps me build apps in a more structured way.
  • Also, when you are working with it, remember to drag that silly pop up blue box off to the side or bottom  corner so it's not always in your face as you are dragging the boxes around.
  • I love this, but it would immensely help if I could bring the diagram as part of my home page (as a jpeg)
  • Hi Kingsly,

    A little trick I do is you can put a web page widget of your relationship diagram page right on your Admin dashboard. When I'm actively working on an app I cheat and do that so I don't have to go back to it. You can also put a button to it on your dashboard as an alternative to save you a few clicks.

      Yes, I did realize that before. Not to the effect how I wanted it to appear. Button might be more another option. Let me try that. Thanks Evan
