The Bulk Editor (also called the Grid Editor) is a spreadsheet-style interface for editing tables and columns quickly. Instead of opening a separate dialog for each table, you can view and modify many tables and their columns side by side in a single grid.
It is available in two situations:
The Bulk Editor is particularly useful when you need to rename a large number of columns, change data types across many tables, or add columns to several tables in one session.
Right-click any table header in the diagram and choose Open in Grid Editor from the context menu. The editor opens as a panel at the bottom of the screen.
Select multiple rows in the grid by holding Ctrl (or Shift for a range) and clicking the row headers. Then double-click any cell in the selection to enter edit mode — the same value will be applied to all selected rows at once.
This is ideal for batch operations such as:
The Bulk Editor offers two display modes:
Switch between the two modes using the toggle buttons at the top of the editor panel.
In logical design, the Bulk Editor shows entities and their attributes instead of tables and columns. The same batch-edit capabilities apply, making it efficient to define many attributes quickly — for example, setting attribute types or marking mandatory fields across several entities in one pass.
