---------------------------------

The screencast here:

is even more impressive :).

Maybe the author of ObjectVisualizer could help integrate it into CM?

> Here's my first pass at the "Browse Data" Tool menu option.
> This patch can be applied against 1.1 RC1.
> Browse Data is intended to let a developer look at the raw database data as defined in his data model, either from a ObjEntity point of view, a DbEntity point of view, or a query point of view.
> The data browsing works ok for both ObjEntities and DbEntities, although I'm going to need to put something in there to handle fetch limits (which may or may not currently be set to 50) and additional batches.
> Bugs currently include
> - Screen layout doesn't resize right
> - Panel needs to pop up when running a database query and go away when it's done.
> Any help in solving the layout issues would be greatly appreciated. :)
> Other improvements I'd like to eventually see in no particular order would be
> - Specify fetch limits and to scroll through fetch batches.
> - Edit data cells
> - Display data from stored SQL queries
> - Display data from manually-input SQL queries
> - Reorder columns
> - Resize columns (may just be a side-effect of fixing the known bugs for layouts)
> - Hide columns
> - Save preferences for column orders/column widths/hidden columns
> - Specify ObjAttribute to display for relationship cell text rather than primary key; will require some prefetching :)
> - Click on a relationship for an ObjEntity data cell and be taken to that ObjEntity data.
