I am creating a visual representation of my existing database with MySQL Workbench and I am able to synchronize the models with the "Database -> Synchronize Model..." menu. However, every time I synchronize (update) my model, I have to recreate the EER Diagram and rearrange all the tables. Is there a way to update or synchronize the EER Diagram as well? Thanks.

  • Database > Synchronize Model...
  • Choose Stored Connection
  • Select the Schemata
  • Choose which to update: Model or Source (in your case, point arrows to Model)
