Navigate through canvas area
During the design task, you often need to translate or even locate objects in the database model.
Select multiple objects at once
There are three ways to select multiple objects on the model.
Zooming and aligning the objects
Two handy features when creating objects are zooming in or out of the canvas and aligning objects to the grid.
Quick actions over objects
It is possible to change some objects' attributes without the need to open their respective editing dialog through the quick actions menu.
New object overlay
To accelerate object creation even more, pgModeler includes a special floating widget called new object overlay.
Copy, cut, duplicate and delete objects
Objects can be copied (Ctrl+C), cut (Ctrl+X), duplicated (Ctrl+D), and deleted (Del) in the database model.
Protecting objects
When dealing with critical models, it is possible to protect objects from accidental modifications by using the Protect menu item when right-clicking them.
Object's dependencies and references
As mentioned before, in pgModeler the objects are tightly coupled demanding special care when manipulating them.
