GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Italian term or phrase:schema
English translation:schema

Italian to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Computers: Software / computer graphics
Italian term or phrase: schema
The entire phrases are:

"i blocchi elementari con i quali si definiscono graficamente gli **schemi** in un diagramma",

and:

"elaborazione grafica degli **schemi** dei diagrammi".

The document is a user manual for a graphics interface program, explaining how the interface diagrams are put together. Can anyone help me with "schemi"? I'm a little confused as it is sometimes translated as "diagrams" but is clearly something different in this case.

Many thanks in advance, Nina

schema
Explanation:
Hi Nina
I know it sounds odd but from what you write I believe you may be looking for the word "schema", a term which I have used to translate "schema" for my biggest client since 1997
See wikipedia : Schema object, Oracle database object; Conceptual schema, a map of concepts and their relationships; Logical schema, a map of entities and their attributes ...
