Thread: More information about the selected objects
Hello,
When you click on a table, in the status bar appears: "Retrieving details on table <table_name>..."
I'd like to put more information and leave it like this: "Retrieving details on table <database_name>-><schema_name>.<table_name>, For example:
"Retrieving details on table db_developers->public.table..."
The same for all objects, like functions, views, operators, triggers, etc..
I would like to do this, because when there are many tables I end up getting lost and not knowing what database I'm working ...
So, this information would solve the problem. What do you think?

You can certainly work on a patch. Shouldn't be hard to code. I see some value on it, but I don't like the arrow. -- Guillaume http://blog.guillaume.lelarge.info http://www.dalibo.com
Forwarding, sorry.

Any suggestions?I see some value on it, but I don't like the arrow.
I could put the point rather than the arrow or other something. What do you think?

I agree.

a box with a "user@database (server)" (with a lock icon if you use SSL

I liked the idea!
We could add status boxes in front of the information "Retrieving details ...".
For example, suppose that is the status bar:
With 3 status boxes:
|| "Retrieving details on schema.table" || user@database || server ||
or with 2 status boxes:
|| "Retrieving details on schema.table" || user@database ( server ) ||

I think I like the second one better, but this is just my opinion.
Well, I'll start working on the second, then.
If new opinions, we changed.

Aside from it being a needless amount of information to clutter the display with, I can pretty much guarantee you won't be able to figure out a clean way of sizing the panels to accomodate all that data without truncating one or more of them for some selected objects.
I suspect I will end up objecting strongly to any patch that tries do do what's being discussed.

Are we talking about the same thing? I'm not suggesting to add a panel.
I'm suggesting to add another box in the status bar (wxStatusBar
object). It won't take any more space than before.
The bar won't, but the text in it will.

You'll end up with a bunch of truncated text labels making the status bar look busy, overly complex and distracting, and not necessarily conveying the information it's trying to. Resizing won't help as you can only have one "sprung" pane on some (all?) platforms and that needs to be the one displaying the status messages (which we do not want to be truncated either). -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

Really. Your servers have very long names. This should happen only at lower resolutions.
And if we put a configuration option? The user decides if he wants this option or not.
Or to put this information somewhere else, but where?

Yes, I agree.

Here, also without problems. I agree too.

I agree that isn't an issue, but I think that this feature would facilitate a bit when you have multiple objects.
But, this implementation will really cause an issue. So is better not to do.

So is better not to do. One alternative option might be to have an extra wxAUI menubar panel, with a couple of textlabels on it.

Hello,
I don't think it's cool. But I think the information is important, even though the same information is in the treeview.
If I don't find an elegant way to do this, I think better give up.

I much prefer what you call "on caption" (I call it the title bar).
I called it as "on caption" because of my habit with Delphi.
It is the title bar really
That's already what we do with the query tool.
So, I'll send the patch in the title bar, for you to give a look.
Hello,
I finished the patch. It works fine on Windows 7, but the SetLabel(wxString) doesn't work on my Ubuntu.
I did make some simple tests with the wxWidgets on Ubuntu, but I can't do it to work.
Can you help-me with the test on Linux?
Thanks.

Got some time to work on this. SetLabel is useful for widgets, not for
windows. Change your call to the SetLabel() method with a call to
SetTitle(). Works great for me on Linux. Don't know on Windows, maybe
you could check?
About your patch, it seems good so far. My only issue is that, when I
click on the root node, or on a servers group node, it still displays
the old connection string. It shouldn't. It should get back to "pgAdmin
III".
Another thing that bugs me. To show the full name of an object, you use
this code:
GetSchema()->GetName() + wxT(".") + GetName()
instead of the simpler:
GetFullIdentifier()
Please change this.
Once all of this have been done, I'll review it one more time, and apply
it if ready.
Thanks.

Got some time to work on this. SetLabel is useful for widgets, not for
windows. Change your call to the SetLabel() method with a call to
SetTitle(). Works great for me on Linux. Don't know on Windows, maybe
you could check?
Yes. Of course.
About your patch, it seems good so far. My only issue is that, when I
click on the root node, or on a servers group node, it still displays
the old connection string. It shouldn't. It should get back to "pgAdmin
III".
OK. It's true.
Another thing that bugs me. To show the full name of an object, you use
this code:
GetSchema()->GetName() + wxT(".") + GetName()
instead of the simpler:
GetFullIdentifier()
OK. I'll make the changes.
Thanks!

Here, I would like the opinion of you.
When the user clicks on the "Database" node, the pgAdmin is connected to the database "postgres".
So, would not it be interesting to show this information?

GetFullIdentifier() doesn't show the same information.
We can't change it, because it is used in several other places.

Well, as far as I know, pgadmin could be connected to many databases. It
should only display the connection it used to get the informations on
the selected object.

Thinking so, I think you have reason.
Are you sure?
Yes. GetFullIdentifier() doesn't return the schema.

GetFullIdentifier() doesn't return the schema. It doesn't return the schema when the schema belongs to your search_path. That's the right way to do it. -- Guillaume http://blog.guillaume.lelarge.info http://www.dalibo.com
It doesn't return the schema when the schema belongs to your
search_path. That's the right way to do it.
OK. But we must always show the scheme in this context.
We can create another function too.
What do you think about this?
