New Diagram Options
You can also turn on or off the display of specific items. For relational databases for example the indexes, columns, relationships, schema, data types etc. All options are available for each sub-diagram separately.
Subject Areas
Subject areas are now supported in all our data modeling tools!
What are subject areas for? It is a graphic element on which you can place collections and other elements that are logically related. You can create visualizations for groups of objects that belong together.
Custom Color & Color Tone Selection
The appearance of database diagrams/schema designs is very important in many cases. In addition to the newly added subject areas, you can now take advantage of additional options such as defining a custom color for basic objects, selecting a color tone, or setting a background pattern for the entire diagram.
Data Type Alias
Data Type Aliases can be used instead of standard data types and replace the previously supported Custom Data Types that could be defined at the project level.
We will continue to enhance these new objects and allow you to define more properties that you can use later to design database schemas. Currently, key benefits include the ability to display data type aliases on a diagram, add a line leading to the objects in which it is used, and specify code that can also be part of the generated script.

Luna Modeler
Database Schema Conversion
One of the key features of version 7 is the ability to convert a database schema from one platform to another. Thus, you can conveniently convert a Logical Model to the target Physical Model, or e.g. load a PostgreSQL structure and convert it to a SQL Server project type, etc. There is also an option to set up data type mappings. Other platform dependent objects will be converted to Data type alias, or Other object.

Cross-platform Copy & Paste
Another improvement is the ability to copy objects across projects. Select a part of your project created for MySQL, copy it using CTRL+C and then in a new instance of Luna Modeler paste the contents of the clipboard into a project for a completely different database platform, e.g. SQL Server or Postgres. The data types will change according to the settings defined in the Project Conversion Settings.
