Hey Bharath

Thanks for posting in the Lucid Community! You can add fields to your ERD by selecting the right contextual panel and navigating to the Layout tab. 

Check out the ERD Lucid Help Desk article for more information on working with ERDs in Lucidchart. Cheers!

@Phillip W , what you are showing is the ability to add ROWS. We want to add COLUMNS.

Hi @rajmore,

Thanks for adding to this thread.

You can add columns to/remove columns from your entity by switching your ERD shape to another from the layout panel:

The layout panel will automatically open as you select your ERD entity shape on your canvas.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you for the quick reply. You only show the ability to go to 3 columns. I need nine columns.
