Ordering and filtering
Component order in the Deployment tab is the order they will execute in. Get it wrong and dependent components fail.
Initial order comes from each template's <Deployment Weight="…"> attribute (see the schema reference), so with conventional weights (tables 100, functions 200, procedures 280, views 300, triggers 400, data 500) you usually don't need to touch it.
Reorder by one row
In the Deployment tab:
- Toolbar Move Up (Alt+↑) / Move Down (Alt+↓). Moves the selected row up or down one position.
- Right-click → Move Up / Move Down.
Reorder by drag
Drag any row up or down in the grid.
Move to a specific position
Use the Pos: textbox on the toolbar, then Move To. Enter the target position (1-based); the selected row moves there.
Undo / redo
Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y, and toolbar Undo / Redo. Work on the most recent reorder / add / remove actions.
Filtering
The Filter: textbox on the toolbar narrows the visible rows by searching against component paths. Rows outside the filter are hidden in the view but still included in the deployment.
Selecting and deleting
- Ctrl+A selects every row.
- Delete removes the selected rows from the deployment.
Previewing before you run
The Deployment toolbar has three preview actions:
- What If. Dry-run preview of what the deployment would do.
- Database Snapshot. Compare the deployment's components against the current database state.
- SQL Export. Write the deployment out as a flat SQL script you can inspect or hand off.
Running the deployment
The toolbar Deploy button (Ctrl+Shift+E) executes the deployment. See deployment files for the full save-and-run story.
