Here's a patch to clean up some issues with the schema diagram
editor in pgaccess. This patch:

* allows schema window to be resized up to full screen size
* autosizes window on schema open
* allows multiselect of tables (by shift click) to allow
dragging of sets of tables
deletion of sets of tables
* fixes a bug in table deletion code that did not delete
links to that table properly
* changes link lines to be continous, so they export better
via postscript->pstoedit->xfig

It does not change the name of the feature from schema, as I
asked about on HACKERS. I'm off for a week's vacation starting
tomorrow, so I probably won't see any commentary on this until
Monday the 24th

Re: PgAccess schema-diagram cleanup

I have bounced this message to the pgaccess maintainer, and to the
interfaces list. I would prefer Constantin to apply the patch to his
version, and issue a new release.

editor in pgaccess. This patch:

* allows schema window to be resized up to full screen size
* autosizes window on schema open
* allows multiselect of tables (by shift click) to allow

* fixes a bug in table deletion code that did not delete
links to that table properly
* changes link lines to be continous, so they export better

Can someone tell me where we are on this? Constantin?

Re: [PATCHES] PgAccess schema-diagram cleanup

It got bounced to Constantin. I'm not sure if it's made it in, there.
I'll ping him and see if he needs a new patch.

Wohoo, looks like this was applied. We will ship the new pgaccess
version with 7.1.
