Home Tutorial: Creating a simple database design

# Creating a new Document

1. The first step is to open the SQLEditor application. You should see a new untitled document window appear on your screen.
2. If you don't see a new document window use File→New

The document window is where you view and edit your design.

The big section in the middle is the canvas, where the diagram is actually drawn.

To the right is the Inspector Panel, which allows you to edit the objects you create

The left side has the source view, which displays a live view of the SQL source for the diagram

Tip:
If you don't see the inspector panel visible use Window→Object Sidebar →Show Inspector
← Return to Start
Next Step →
