Hi,
is it possible to hide the databases where I am not the owner?
In our university we have many postgresql user.
Each user has his own database.
When I start pgAdmin all databases are displayed.
Is there a button to avoid showing these databases?
Ok,
Dave and me have been discussing a little about this request, and we'll probably implement a configurable SQL restriction for that in 1.5/1.6. Your requirement seems typical for universities, let's declare this as my contribution to the Deutsches Bildungssystem! Greetings to the Geomatikum, where I spent quite some sleepy mornings in lectures, I remember... Regards,

Has there been any update on this?
Yes - you can hide databases and schemas in 1.6 (currently in beta). You reminded me so I've added the following note to the docs (the server properties page to be exact):
The DB restriction field allows you to enter an SQL restriction that will be used against the pg_database table to limit the databases that you see. For example, you might enter: datname IN ('live_db', 'test_db') so that only live_db and test_db are shown in the pgAdmin browser. Note that you can also limit the schemas shown in the database from the Database properties dialogue by entering a restriction against pg_namespace.
Regards, Dave.
