Table of Contents
When you start the Power*Architect, you will see the Project window, shown below, which is the main view area and starting point for actions.
Database Tree - This is where you can add, maintain and explore imported connections. It uses a tree-node dropdown method. Therefore to explore inner components, you can expand components within this container as needed.
Playpen - This is the main area of the window, in which you manipulate tables and relationships. You can play here to your heart's content, knowing it will not be saved until you ask the program to save.
Playpen Components - These are the components that can go into the playpen. The playpen components are Tables and Relationships.
Zoom Tools allow you to control the magnification level of components display
Delete will delete the selected component(s).
