Thread: pgadmin III connection dialogue: cannot change options

Hello,

>From latest CVS    checkout:

When trying to connect to a server (the "connect to server" dialogue),
it seems that the connection options (like user name) cannot be changed.
Current work-around: Remove the connection and create a new one with
other parameters.

That's by design (and has always been that way).

That' right, but why change parameters? Do you do that regularly? If you 
need more than one user, why not creating more connections.

You may have a point. But maybe the dialogue could be changed, then? - In a way where the fields don't look like they
areeditable (but still cut-and-past'able, if possible)?
