This view can be used to view an ER Diagram for the selected G-Family. This diagram shows the actual names of the tables within the database.
How to Change What is Visible in the View
The bottom left pane can be used to change what information is displayed for a selected G-Family within the GenRocket Domain or ER Diagram:

Visibility options can be changed for all Domains or selected Domains. The Filter Field can be used to locate a specific Domain within the G-Family.
Use the checkboxes to select or deselect Domains within the selected G-Family. Then use the Visibility Menu to change what is displayed:
