Chapter 5 Using the PowerDesigner Interface


Using Property Sheets

Property sheets present the properties of objects in PowerDesigner.

The title bar of the property sheet identifies the object, for example, Class Properties or Table Properties and provides the name and code of the object.

Property sheets group properties in different tabs and you can customize their display.

Most PowerDesigner objects share the following standard tabs. They display by default the first time you open the product:

Standard tabs Description
General Contains information that identifies the object (Name, Code).
Rules Contains business rules applied to the object.
Notes Contains notes (Description and Annotation) for the object.
Version Info Contains information about the origins of the object.
Dependencies Shows items that depend on the current object and influence other objects.
Extended Dependencies Contains user-defined dependencies of the object.
