SQL Developer includes an integrated version of SQL Developer Data Modeler. You can create, open, import, and save a database design, and you can create, modify, and delete Data Modeler objects.
To display Data Modeler in the SQL Developer UI, click View, then Data Modeler, then Browser.
To create a new design, right-click the Designs node and select New Design.
To open an existing design, click File, then Data Modeler, then Open.
If the design is one that you have recently opened, you can click File, then Data Modeler, then Recent Designs and select the design.
To access other Data Modeler features (such as specifying design rules and user preferences), click Tools, then Data Modeler.
The Model tab in a table display includes Open in Data Modeler, which enables you to open the table and sometimes related tables in a Data Modeler diagram view.
If you right-click a table in the diagram and select Show Parent and Child Tables, any parent and child tables are added to the display (if they are not already included).
If you right-click a table in the diagram and select Properties, a Data Modeler table properties display is opened in read-only mode.
