Would like to be able to control the color of some of the connecting lines on the relationships diagram. For example, would like the lines for the relationships that are currently derived from the database to remain the same, and the lines for the relationships that come from the foreign keys specified in the metadata file via the -meta parameter to be a different color. Could the xml format be enhanced so that the metadata can provide the color to be used for each relationship?

    It looks like it's possible to specify the color of the connecting lines to Graphviz.

    Would there be something like linkColor specified in the foreignKey entry?

    yes - that would be good
    ex:
    <table name="CHILD_TABLE">
    <column name="KEY1">
    <foreignKey table="PARENT_TABLE" column="ALT_KEY"
    <color=blue>
    </column>
    </table>
    or similar...
