You can do a similar thing with the latest MySQL Workbench (free 
download from MySQL)
You basically create a new model by reverse engineering an existing 
database. As the XOT database doesn't conatin the actual foreign key 
definitions, it doesn't draw the (implied) releationships.

I added my understanding of them in the diagram attached.
