+ <p> The VDB editor had some limitations on it's layout and required
re-work in order to accommodate a
+ large number of models and files as well as the addition of a new tab introduced
for editing
+ Translator Override properties. (TEIIDDES-934)</p>
+ <p>The image below shows upper and lower panels separated by a movable
splitter.
+ Upper panel includes tabs for adding and removing your "Models" and
"Other Files.</p>
+ <p>The lower tab contains tabs for editing and managing Data Roles, VDB
Description and the newly available
+ Translator Overrides.</p>

+ <p>The VDB manifest definition (vdb.xml) has had provisions for applying
Translator property overrides
+ specific to the source models contained in your VDB. In 7.4, Teiid Designer
provides a means to add
+ and edit these overrides. (TEIIDDES-710)</p>
+ <p>As shown in the figure above, the Translator Overrides tab panel contains
a list panel on the left containing
+ references to your Overridden Translators. Selecting one of these from the list
populates the Description
+ and Properties panel on the right.</p>
+ <p>To override translator properties for one or more of you source models,
select the "+" or add action at the
+ bottom left of the panel. When the Add Translator Override dialog appears (shown
below), select an existing
+ translator type and select OK.</p>
+ <p><img style="border: 1px solid ;"

+
+ <p>The above dialog will be displayed if there is a default Teiid instance
defined and connected in the Teiid View.
+ If there are no Teiid servers defined in your workspace, you can still create a
translator override.
+ The following dialog will be displayed instead. Provide a unique name for your
translator override and enter
+ a valid translator name (i.e. oracle, mysql, etc. See your Teiid server installation or
AS console
+ for available translator names)</p>

which Teiid Designer uses to

+ <p>In 7.4, you can now view this connection information by selecting a source
model and using the "Modeling >

these properties prior to production

+ <p>Lastly, an option was added to the <b>Export > Teiid Designer

option when export project sets for
