In older versions of MySQL Workbench there was an "Object Notation menu" option Workbench (PKs and FKs only), which would show only columns that are primary and foreign keys.
This is removed from Workbench 6.3.
For large tables it was useful to only show primary and foreign keys. Is there a way to do this in current MySQL Workbench versions?

I'm trying to export data from some tables and add a Truncate statement to those tables I will export using Mysql Workbench, but I don't see where I can add this option, even I have check the advanced options
but without no luck
In phpmyadmin there is a checkbox called "Truncate table before insert"
Is there something like this in Mysql workbench
Is there a quick way to view the primary key of a table in DBeaver? Like e.g. in the Eclipse data source explorer, where primary key rows are marked with "PK" and a special symbol.
For a given table, right click on the table name(in Database Navigator) -> select View Diagram.
This will open a window like this containing a single ER Diagram for the table -
In this diagram, the primary keys can be seen marked as bold under the table name, in the second partition.
To have a look at the primary keys of all the tables, in the Database Navigator, go to your database and then right click on public -> select View diagram. This will open the ER diagram for the whole database and the connections between the tables. Here, under each table name, the bold columns are the primary keys.
Note: A primary key can be a single key as well as a combination of multiple keys.
As per this github post, some database types (at least MySQL and PostgreSQL) show a small lightbulb to the left of the column name. This is visible in the Properties, Data and ER Diagram tabs.
Example with PostgreSQL:
I have created a table, but is not listed on DataStudio 4101(tables node)
I can insert data by sql commands and drop/create the table, but can not find it on the server Database Node, under tables.
Other tables are displayed, but not the new ones I made.
IF you are using DB2 for i, with "system naming" mode, then your tables may have been created in schema QGPL (the General Purpose Library) by default. Your DB2 session would find them by using its "library list", similar to a path list.
I'm brand new to MySQL Workbench and a have a bit of experience with databases (MS Access). I'm having trouble populating my fk with data. Here's what I have in my db schema:
2 tables Block and Set (Block having a pk Block_ID (type of INT); Set having fk to Block with fk name Set_Block_ID (type of INT).
1 to many relationship created from Block to Set tables linking Block_ID to Set_Block_ID. Relationship created, no problems
I populate the Block table with data. No problems
I then go to populate the Set table with data. I can see all my columns but not the fk. My question is why?
I have created the exact same db in MS Access and my fk is displayed in the linked table and I can populate it while MS Access makes sure referential integrity is enforced. I'm really brand new to Workbench and cant figure out why I cant see and populate my fk column.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!! =)
After having digested all the replies to my question (note sarcasm here) I have finally found a workaround way of solving the issue. To recap:
ISSUE:
created a simple 2 table relationship with Workbench with PK and FK (1 .. n relationship)
FK column not visible in Table Edit so not possible to enter any referencing data
SOLUTION:
installed SQLyog and connected to same server
opened same database and redid the simple 1 .. n relationship
FK column visible for editing in SQLyog
likewise, FK column visible for editing in Workbench
As I said, I'm new to this whole thing so I don't know what the problem was in Workbench. I just know it seems to be working fine now.
As you have noticed, the relationship drawing tool does not create actual foreign key constraints.
However, if double-click the referencing table and switch to the foreign-key tab, you can create references and specify the columns involved. This generates and maintains the visual linkage automatically:
