You use the Oracle physical property editors to work with the relational modeling features of Oracle. These editors are designed with common features that let you quickly create and maintain physical modeling objects.
These editors contain the following options:
PreviousPositions the editor on the previous object in the Navigation Grid.
NextPositions the editor on the next object in the Navigation Grid.
SortSorts the objects by alphabetic or reverse alphabetic order in most instances; some objects support other ways to sort. If other ways of sorting objects exists it will be available using a drop-down selection method when you click the Sort button.
NewCreates an object that becomes the current object in the editor.
DeleteDeletes the selected object.
DB SyncOpens the DB Sync wizard, where you can perform a database-level compare of objects in the current model with matching objects in another model or database.
Note: This button is not available if the DB Sync function is not relevant to the current type of object in the editor.
Help Opens online help for the editor.
Lets you filter a very large list of objects in the Navigation Grid to quickly locate the object for which you need to view or define properties.
Provides a tabular representation of the current object and other objects of the same type. Properties relevant to the object display in separate cells, each with a text entry area, check box, or drop-down control for selecting available values. The amount of space allocated to the Navigation Grid can be adjusted by moving the splitter bar up and down. Columns within the Navigation Grid can be readjusted to be narrower or wider. Once you change a field, when you go to another field, the value is saved. If you click the Cancel button, it only cancels the change of the current field.
Contains the main options for most Oracle objects and is where you define most of the necessary properties for that object. In certain editors, some of the options in this tab only become available after you have first selected a check box to enable that option.
Provides additional functionality relevant to the editor. For example, all editors contain a Comment tab that lets you enter comments specific to that object.
Provides icons you can click to undo the last action or redo the previous action within the editor. Click the Details button to open the Advisory Message Dialog that displays details about the action.
