Chapter 6 - Logical Model About Logical Models Navicat Data Modeler allows you to create logical models, including entities, attributes and relations. In the New Model window, choose Logical as Model Type. You can also use the following features to create a logical model: • Import from Database - reverse engineer from existing databases/schemas or ODBC data source. • Model Conversion - convert from a physical/conceptual model. Add Entities to Logical Model To add a new entity, click the Entity button from the toolbar and click anywhere on the canvas. To add an existing entity from the Explorer's Model tab, simply drag and drop the selected entity from the Model tab to the canvas. For Default diagram notation, the icon means the attribute is a primary key. The icon indicates that the attribute serves as an index. The pop-up menu options of the entity object in the canvas include: Design Entity Edit the entity structure in an Entity Designer, e.g. attributes and relations.

In the Attributes tab, you can search an attribute name by pressing COMMAND-F. Add a Relation to a Logical Model To add a relation, click the Relation button from the toolbar and drag and drop an attribute from the child entity to the parent entity. To show/hide the linked name label, simply check/uncheck the Show name option in the Properties pane. When you move your mouse over a relation connector, the border of the parent and the child entities turn to green and blue respectively. Also, the referenced attributes and the referencing attributes are highlighted. The pop-up menu options of the relation in the canvas include: Design Relation Edit the relation in an Entity Designer.
