Hi there,

how may one copy columns from one entity to another?

I'm missing these features as they are also present in Oracle Designer and i like to switch.
Also, having some kind of default column domain (for example: this is a date column, default is `now()` and it may NOT NULL). Very handy for creation of big diagrams.

thanks a lot,
Sebastian

Horray! I just found it. It's in the `model` tab.
But i'm only able to move? I need something to copy...

Hi Jick,

great thing, thanks.

Imho this would speed up development for database developers a lot.
Having something like domains and only pressing
alt-shift-c, entering 'mycolumn:mydomain' and everything get's right would be my big dream for this software. The best thing then would be to update all affected columns by only updating the domain definition.

Best regards,
Sebastian
