Description:
the small window used to show the name of a foreign key cannot be resized, truncating the view for longer (20+ chars) foreign key names

How to repeat:
create a foreign key, give it a long name.

Suggested fix:
please allow resize of this window, preferably grow/shrink automatically to fit full constraint  name

Thank you for the reasonable feature request.

I understood what "small window used to show the name of a foreign key" is square area on the relationship. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Hi Sveta, 

thanks for looking.

I'm referring to the rectangular area with the light background that initially appears halfway between the related tables and displays the name or the foreign key. 

In order to completely see the foreign key name, the box should be able to change size. I'd prefer automatically shrink/grow to fit but I'd like to be able too to manually set the width (in order to improve layout capabilities for large/crowded diagrams)

Thank you for the feedback, Roland.

Case is clear now.
