Hi,

I am interested in knowing if there is a utility available within the PL/SQL Developer or elsewhere for producing Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs).

If one is not currently available, are there plans to include one in a future release?

Thank you.

You can use the Diagram Window to create diagrams with all database object types. Go to File > New > Diagram Window to create one. See chapter 9 in the User's Guide for more details.

I've search the forums but can't seem to find the answer to this simple question:

Does the diagram window support some type of auto-layout? I see an option to align to grid, but if I drag 100 tables to the diagram window, they are all added on top of one another, and I'll spend a few hours rearranging them.

Thanks in advance.

There is no auto-layout. You will have to place each object at the correct location.
