Diagram View
The diagram view of the Model Editor is very useful for displaying and printing your model graphically. As with the table mode, you can use the diagram view to edit components of the model, but it's editing capabilities are more limited. Browser Mode
To display the attributes for a particular entity, such as Movie, select the entity. The attributes appear in the column to the right of the entity along with the entity's relationships. You can traverse the model by clicking relationships, as shown in Figure 18
