Creating IE notation diagrams
In UML visualization, you can create diagrams in IE (Information Engineering) notation to examine and design your database applications.
To create an IE notation diagram:
- In the Data perspective, in the Data definition view, right-click a database project; then click New IE Diagram.
- In the New Data Diagram wizard, select the parent folder (database project) and type a file name.
- Click Finish.
A IE notation database diagram is created and opens in the diagram editor.
Note: The parent folder must be a database project; otherwise, the Palette does not open in the diagram editor. You can also create database diagrams from the Navigator or Database Explorer views.
