Description:
This is just a feature request but not having this would typically be a deal-breaker for us to use Workbench at my company.  We typically work with very large database designs and I would love to see a way to set the model page size to something larger than one page.  I guess the best way to conceptually describe my suggestion is an Excel document.  When you create an excel spreadsheet it doesn't have a page size. It is just a collection of data.  It will break up the document into pages based on your print settings for the purpose of printing/creating a PDF/etc.  

I would love to see an infinite (or at least much, much larger) workspace for moving tables around.   And then see the concept of 'page size' only used for printing/document generation.

Not having this would keep us from using Workbench for a lot of our projects.

How to repeat:
Not a bug, just a suggestion.

Suggested fix:
Not a bug, just a suggestion.

Thank you for a reasonable feature request.

If you want a larger diagram, you can go to Model -> Diagram Size...
and change the size to as many pages wide/high as you need.
Printing to multiple pages is a SE specific feature.

I'm marking this as Not a Bug, please reopen with further clarifications 
if needed.
