When creating an entity diagram, have the ability to hide the attributes. This would make it easy to see the relation between entities easily.

Good idea! Would be useful when we have tables with many attributes and want to see more of the data model in the diagram

Yes, good idea.

I would love this to be elective, similar to hiding attributes in aggregate preview.  

Some attributes, like the created_on / created_by / updated_on / updated_by just clutter up the diagram and add no value, but some attributes are relevant to understanding the model.

Great idea Patricia,

Already shared with my devs.

Hi Patrícia,

Thank you for your idea. I moved it to "On our radar", meaning that we will keep an eye on it but don’t have a deadline to implement it.

Cheers,

Besides that functionality, I propose one intermedial view of the entities only with the foreign keys.

Our R&D team could not agree more, which is the reason why we developed and published Orbit Suite Data Manager Forge Component, free to use.  See our must recent post and release information.

Hi everyone! This was implemented back in 2024, updating the idea.
