In order to build your ER diagrams interactively, it is possible to drag and drop objects and relationships from the object grid and the relationship grid to the diagram canvas.

The area under the grid is made up of two tabs, which are the “Relationships” and “In diagram” tabs.

• Relationships tab: All the relationships between the object to explore and the selected object are displayed in this list. Double-click on the relationship name to open the “Relationship” details form.

• In diagram tab: all the diagrams where the selected object exists are displayed in this list. Double click on the diagram’s name to reach the related object on this “diagram”.

• Expand the “data model browser” form: ERBuilder for Salesforce allows you to expand the data model browser form to take the full width of the window. To do so, click the  expand button on the left bottom of the browser.

To reset the default display of the data browser, click       on the left bottom of the browser form.

• Hide objects in diagram: by checking the “Hide objects in diagram” checkbox, all the objects present in the current diagram are hidden from the project grid.
