Toad Data Modeler 7.3

In Version Manager, the items are sorted this way:

Projects are listed alphabetically.
Under projects, files are listed in the alphabetical order too. Under files, their versions and revisions are displayed.
Versions and revisions of files are sorted in the order they were created. This sorting allows you to see what version precedes which one, what version has been derived from which etc. No other sorting is available in Version Manager itself, however you can sort the items also in the List of Versions and dock the List on Version Manager.

How does it work?

If you check out a version, the version locks and the corresponding file on the server becomes read-only, however it is editable in your local file.

When you check in the version, the version unlocks and the corresponding file on the server can be modified. In your local file, it is locked and becomes read-only.

Version lock properties show information on who locked the project and when.

Note: For now, all users in Version Manager are Admins.

Check Out

Opens the selected version/revision for edit.

Note: Multiple Version Check Out is possible. - Use SHIFT key to select versions and click Check Out then.

Local Directory - Define a path where you want to load the selected version. Here, the version will be saved and from here, you will work with the version. The default path is set in the Settings menu | Options | Version Manager | Local Directory.

Possible path is: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Quest Software\Toad Data Modeler\Installation name\VersionManager\Local\Download\Project_Name

After you define and confirm the path, the version will open in the Application Window. A new version item will appear also in the Application View.

The selected version will be loaded from a server to your local file. The version will be locked automatically on the server.
The version item will appear in the Application View from where you can manage it as well (see the pop-up menu or main menu toolbar).
The version will open in the Application Window.

After you confirm OK, the version will be saved to your local disk and possible changes will be applied on a server. Version will be automatically unlocked and will become accessible for other team members. (Projects.xml file is saved after every change made in the project. The file is being updated continuously - changes made and saved by user A will be visible to user B.)

Note: Multiple Version Check In is possible. - Use SHIFT key to select versions and click Check In then.

The Options contain most of the settings available in Toad Data Modeler. This topic divides all settings into categories and describes what each individual option controls.

TIP: To find a specific setting quickly, use Search Inbox

There are two kinds of Options:

Default Options (most of the Model related settings) - these apply to newly created Models only, they do not influence existing Models
Other Options (most of the general settings) - these are changeable at any time, the changes are applied immediately

The main Options Categories are:

Application Options - affect the application behavior and user interface
Model Options - affect every existing or created Model

The Options categories are:

General
Graphics
Dialog Boxes
Paths
Reverse Engineering
Reports
Scripting
TOAD for Oracle Integration
Version Control System
Print
Expert Mode
Physical Model
Specific Databases
Logical Model

The Import and Export of Settings is discussed at the end of the topic.

Application

General

Option	Description
Open Only One Instance of Forms	With this option unchecked it is possible to have multiple identical forms opened at the same time (such as various object properties, model actions wizards, etc...). When checked, TDM only opens one instance of a form and instead of opening another form, the one already opened is focused.
Expert Mode	Turns Expert Mode on/off. When on, several new options become available. Recommended for power users and developers.
Show Hints in Designers	When checked, shows objects notes and description on mouseover on Workspace.
Run Only One Instance of Application	Checked means you can open only one instance of Toad Data Modeler. When unchecked, you can open multiple instances of the application.
Open Workspace Properties Dialog after Add Workspace	Determines if Workspace Properties dialog will be shown every time you add a new workspace.
Save Models and Projects as Formatted XML Files	Models saved in XML format are by default not very readable when opened in editor. Checking this option will cause the models to be saved in more comprehensible format.
Always Use CTRL to Select Attribute	When holding CTRL key, you can click on attributes in entities to select them. Unchecking this option allows you to do this without holding CTRL. The downside is that you need to drag entities by their headers or whitespace to move them.
Use Shift to Dock Forms	While moving forms, Toad Data Modeler automatically suggests you docking positions. If you dislike this behavior, you can uncheck this option. In this case docking positions will be suggested only when you hold SHIFT during moving a form.
General Font	Sets the font application uses in most of the user interface. Doesn't include menus.
Select Unit of Length	You can choose between using millimeters or inches. This choice is reflected in many dialogs which contain any kind of size.
Icons Theme	You can switch between Toad Data Modeler and Toad for Oracle icon themes.
Number of "Undo/Redo" Steps	Sets the number of Undo/Redo steps available. Higher amounts require slightly more system memory.
Toolbars and Menu Style	There are several graphical styles available for Menu and Toolbars in TDM.
Toolbar Rows	Sets the number of rows dedicated to Toolbars.
Recent Files Count	Sets the number of recent files TDM remembers (these are files opened in the past, accessible in File Menu \| Recent Files)

Visible Page Boundaries	Shows/hides page boundaries.
Visible Page Numbers	Shows/hides page numbers.
Max. Number of Characters for Displayed Data Type	Some enumeration or user data types might be very long and if the Recalculate Size option is turned on, the entity containing them can become wide. This option sets the maximal number of characters shown in the entity and therefore limits the entity maximum width.
Hints in Designer	Controls what is displayed in a popup hint in both physical and logical models. Notes are displayed for physical models and descriptions for logical models. Disable - no popup hints are displayed Notes - notes/descriptions are displayed Technical Notes - technical notes/technical descriptions are displayed
