TDM 4 and foreign key

Toad Data Modeler

Hi.
I’ve installed TDM 4.1.5.9 and I don’t understand why I can’t see FK names when creating.

Many thanks,
Andrea

Hi,

please send me screenshot and let me know what is your target platform.
Note: FK attributes don’t migrate to child entities in logical model.

I’ve a little problem with screenshot because I’ve disinstalled the tdm 4 version …
The model I’m creating is not logical but physical, MySql 5.0
I can create FK and also when I generate the sql script the fk are correctly generated…
but on the drawing, the line representig the FK dosn’t have the name.

I hope to be able to reinstall the 4 version today and then post my screenshot …

Thanks,
Andrea

Hi Andrea,

please attach screenshot. I am not sure what you exactly wish to display.

If you don’t see labels of relationship lines, right click WS area and select Format Workspace. On tab General, enable option Display Line Names.

I’ve installed another time the 4.1.5.9 version, I create a new physical MySQL model and now I can see the FK name.

Many thanks for your help.
