Previous Top Next |
( Pro Edition )
Printing Schema Objects can be done in different ways - you can use the Print button in the main toolbar and select Print Objects, or use the context menu in the Database Navigator for the Schema node. Before printing, a Print Preview is available.
If you using the context menu on a list or a single object in the Database Navigator, you will only get a Print Options dialog. Using the OK button on the dialog will open a preview of the selected object or list of objects.
For additional notes, take a look at:
The Print Objects option will open the Print Metadata dialog, which looks similar to this:
Print Metadata window
On the left, there's a list of available objects to print. Depending on what database engine you're using, the toolbar might have more or less buttons enabled. There's a button for each type of schema object - domains, tables, views etc... Note there's no button for Indices - these are getting (optionally) printed with each table.
By using the buttons in (1) - you can move items from the left to the right, or vice versa.
The options in (2) are different for each object type, and are dependent on the capabilities of your database engine: if your database engine doesn't support "triggers", then an option like include triggers is disabled. Below is an explanation of the different options you will encounter.
The two toolbar buttons (3) give you the possibility of showing a preview or printing your report. You can mix any number and/or type of objects - if you're using multiple object types, Database Workbench will automatically create a "multi-report" - a report that is build from the separate reports.
A Preview allows you to check if the report is what you want, without wasting any paper - you can browse forward and back in the report pages and there's a Print button as well.
