Database properties

Database Editor provides you with an ability to view and edit database properties. The Properties tab allows you to change the comment for the database.

Subitems

Every tab is intended for managing some database objects (e.g. schemas, users, roles, groups, queries, public functions, etc.). Open the object in its editor by double-clicking or pressing the Enter key. The popup menu allows you to create new, edit or drop the selected database objects. Using this menu you can also create a copy of the object.

You can operate on several objects at a time. For this you have to select database objects with the Shift or the Ctrl key pressed. After the group of objects is selected, you can operate on it, e.g. delete several objects at once, as it were a single object.

Name

Here you can view the database name.

Owner

By default, only the owner of an object can perform various operations with the object. In order to allow other users to operate it, privileges must be granted. (However, users that have the superuser attribute can always access any object.)
 

To apply the changes, select the Apply Changes item in the Navigation bar or use Ctrl+F9 or Ctrl+F7 shortcut keys.

It is also possible to modify object properties without opening the object editor: use the Object Properties item of the popup menu of the selected object from the explorer tree.
