How can I add data types for fields in Draw.io's Database 3 Software diagram type's table representations?

2022-04-11 02:26 foamroll imported from Stackoverflow

Using Draw.io's MacOS Desktop release,'Database 3' is a Software diagram option: enter image description here

A table representation in it looks like this:

enter image description here

My question is, how can I add a data type to a field in a column, and not just tag it to the name? It doesn't appear to be possible, at first, on the right side-menu, nor on the initial double-click on the representation.

    Upon the initial double click on the representation, single left-clicking to the right of the second column brings up the Table menu. The second button Insert Column Right allows for this: enter image description here

    Upon inserting it, clicking the right-arrow key positions the cursor for entry of the type: enter image description here

  • I need anti composition(aggregation) design pattern and decoupling in UML

    I design class diagram in uml for electronic voting and ballot system part Ballot, Roll, Political Party, Candidate.

    ballot system diagram class

    My problem is that diagram isn't good, because I have many composition between classes. When coding in java I have a class BallotPaper that contains ElectoralRoll

    ArrayList<BallotPaper > ballotPapers = new ArrayList<BallotPaper>();

//CASCADE
ArrayList<Cadidate> candidates = new ArrayList<Cadidate>();
ArrayList<PoliticalParty> politicalParties = new ArrayList<PoliticalParty>();
ArrayList<ElectoralRoll> electoralRolls = new ArrayList<ElectoralRoll>();

politicalParties.setCandidates(candidates);
electoralRolls.setPoliticalParties(politicalParties);
ballotPapers.setElectoralRolls(electoralRolls)

    diagram class not respect low coupling principe for example from class ballotPapers and candiate there is distance three. The distance must be one between objects.

    Candidate c = ballotPapers.at(2).getElectoralRolls().at(5).getPoliticalParties().at(3).getCandidate();

It should appear something like this. This is what i have so far (this is for a online shop, a project for uni); If you can give me some other advice for this project it would be great, thanks!

  • Is it possible to bulk save all diagrams to PNG using draw.io?

    I have received several XML files from a colleague, each of which contains one to two dozen tabs containing a single block diagram. Is it possible, through some basic set of steps, to use save all of the diagrams to a PNG file, or some similar type of image file? I am using the draw.io app for Mac to view these XML files and the diagrams contained within them.

    *I have approximately 8 XML files, with up to 20 tabs each, so this would be a lot of clicking on each tab and then manually saving each file to disk. This is the reason why I'm asking.

    thanks.

  • Documentation of mxGraph XML Attributes for direct xml manipulation

    Im trying to generate a mxGraph XML from scratch using Elixir code. My starting reference is a simple DrawIO example:

    <mxGraphModel dx="1102" dy="905" grid="1" gridSize="10" guides="1" tooltips="1" connect="1" arrows="1" fold="1" page="0" pageScale="1" pageWidth="827" pageHeight="1169" math="0" shadow="0">
  <root>
    <mxCell id="0" />
    <mxCell id="1" parent="0" />
    
    <mxCell id="ri-TF_yU_bFy-vH3Lpuf-1" value="abcd" style="rounded=1;whiteSpace=wrap;html=1;" parent="1" vertex="1">
      <mxGeometry x="200" y="555" width="120" height="60" as="geometry" />
    </mxCell>
  </root>
</mxGraphModel>

    But I need to understand what each Attribute of each MX element I bump into means before I code some kind of xml generator for them. I've already look at https://jgraph.github.io/mxgraph/ but I couldn't find anything about their raw xml attributes definitions. No luck with google too.

    Where can I get a reference or documentation about those Raw Mx Xml Attributes? ( NOT https://jgraph.github.io/mxgraph/ because they don't have it )

    For example, these are the questions I want to know how to find answers to:

    • What dx/dy mean?
    • What connect="1" means?
    • Is there any pattern restriction to the random ids generated for mxCells?
    • etc..
