Hi, 

One of the more interesting presentations of Data Assets (Databases, Tables and Columns in particular) is a simple tree that walks the edg:tableOf and edg:columnOf relationships and displays them in as a navigable hierarchy.  Is there a way to create such a view in EDG?  If I made a super property for the above and inferred, I could do it using the Association view in TBC.  If this is not a standard capability, how can I build my own custom visualization?

Without such a presentation layer, it is very difficult to enable people to interact with the data in intuitive ways.

Thanks,

Tim

Yes, it is coming in 6.4. No need to create a parent property


If you want to test it out, we could probably get you an alpha version.

That's great news!  When is 6.4 targeted for release?  I would be interested in testing it if it's not too much trouble.
