MySQL Model Overview Page

This screenshot shows the MySQL Model Overview page. It is the central starting point of any MySQL Workbench project and allows the creation and management of diagrams, schemata and their objects, scripts and more.

EER Diagram

Each Workbench model can hold several EER Diagrams that visualize different parts of the catalog. The diagram can be freely scaled to fit the screen size.

Modeling Tools

MySQL Workbench supports sophisticated modeling tools that help you create database schemata most efficiently.

Notation Styles

A number of different notation styles are available at your disposal. Aside from the default crow foot style, you can also switch to the classic style or one that has been modeled after Microsoft Access, called the “Connect To Column” style. These two are demonstrated in the next screen shot. But that is still not all MySQL Workbench has to offer. There is also the UML and the IDEF1X style too.

Designer Canvas

Utilizing a special canvas for drawing EER Diagrams enables for high speed rendering and display effects to highlight important information. For systems capable of providing proper OpenGL support hardware rendering will be enabled in the future, giving even more power to the designer for better user expericence.
