Thread: Issues with v1.10 beta 1
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hi<br /><br /> I have been using beta 1 for a few days now. It's looking good butcould I mention the following items:<br /><br /><b>Query tool Ctrl-E</b><br /> Selecting the Query tool opens with thecontents of the SQL pane which it didn't in 1.8.4. I think this behaviour is fine except when you go to open the queryfile you actually want to work on. You now get the dialog "the text has changed. Do you want to save changes?" whichof course it hasn't.<br /><br /> Block indenting logic has changed<br /> I have tabs set to spaces and indent set to2. If I have a block where the first line(s) are indented by one more space than the final line it is not possible to getthe block to align using keyboard. Also in 1.8.4 the line the cursor was on was excluded from block indent whereas itis now included which makes it a bit more awkward to use.<br /><br /><b>Execute pgScript.</b><br /> Took me little whileto figure out how to use this - probably me being dumb! When I first added the pgScript and pressed F5 it took me awhile to understand why it didn't work. When I figured out it was F6 all was well except that my final query results didn'tappear in the output pane.<br /> Would it be possible for the results of the last query to be sent to the output pane?<br/> I also wondered about F5 giving a clearer message if pgScript was detected?<br /><br /> Many thanks for a greatproduct.<br /><br /> Kieran<br /></font>

I think this behaviour is fine except when you go to This has always been an option - if you don't want the SQL pane contents to be copied in, got to File -> Options -> Query tab, and near the bottom untick "Copy SQL from...". It's probably enabled by default when pgAdmin is first installed. I'm delighted to see that there is now a keyboard shortcut to bring up the query tool - I always felt the lack in previous versions.

Do you want to save changes?" which of course it hasn't. That's always been optional behaviour - see the 'Copy SQL from main form...' option. > Block indenting logic has changed > I have tabs set to spaces and indent set to 2.

Block indenting never used to exist afaict - we occasionally pickup new features in the text control and it seems they added block indent/outdent at the same time I did. I'll test and see if the control's behaviour meets our requirements and remove our code if so. > Execute pgScript. > Took me little while to figure out how to use this - probably me being dumb! > When I first added the pgScript and pressed F5 it took me a while to > understand why it didn't work.

Not sure if this is feasible or not - Mickael? It won't be in 1.10 anyway. > I also wondered about F5 giving a clearer message if pgScript was detected? I'm not sure if that's feasible either, because the Query Builder has to work with any procedural language the user may want to use in Postgres, Postgres Plus AS or Greenplum. Some of them will also look very similar to pgScript. > Many thanks for a great product. You're welcome - thanks for the feedback. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com

So I put that in a TODO list but am not sure it will be implemented. Best regards, Mickael
