Hi,
As the 1st phase of my GSoC project - "Refactoring: Designer/schema integration", I've started the task 1, which is "Providing a single GUI editor for schema".
As the "Designer" and "Edit relational schema" pages share overlapping functionalities, the idea is to bring these two pages and have a more improved page alone.Under this, functionalities of the "Designer" will be improved in such a way, by combining features of the "Edit relational schema" page.
For that I've created some mockups, and already published in my bloghttp://kbyashodha.blogspot.com/2014/05/first-week-of-gsoc-2014.html .

As shown in the above figure, I've introduced two new buttons into the "Designer" page, and followings are the functionalities:
*Edit page: *A user can edit/delete an existing page.
*Save as: *coordinates of the table layout can be saved to an existing page or to a new page.
Apart from these two, while the user is loading the designer page,
- if there are previously saved pages exist, the the first page will be loaded into the designer by default. - if there are no such saved pages, then the default table layout will be loaded.
I'd like to get feedbacks about the above mentioned enhancements.
Best Regards Bimal.
