Updating PostgreSQL projects

How to update your PostgreSQL ER diagrams

If you have created a project using reverse engineering, you have already saved the database connection and the project remembers this connection. So just click on the Update button and choose Update with default connection. The comparison will happen immediately.

In case you created the project manually, you can still compare your project with the database. Just create a database connection on the Connections page. Then navigate to your project and click on the Update button and choose Select connection.
