Thread: Pgadmin3 1.4.3-1 feedback

Package: pgadmin3
Version: 1.4.3-1 (Debian)

# uname -a

Hi,

First of all, thanks for the great work.

There's though a couple of small issues I'd like to mention:
1) There appears to be a problem retrieving a text columns in pgadmin. Pgadmin
shows only a small part of the text column, even if the text column is the only
column selected, for example: SELECT my_text_column FROM my_table_with_text_columns

2) When editing statements in the Query Tool, the cursor sometimes "sticks" to
its current position and does not move unless I click with the mouse on some
other place on the query pane. It's difficult to provide a test case that leads
to this but I've seen it happen several times after running a query, then
selecting several rows in the result pane (Ctrl+RMB) and then mouse-clicking on
the editing pane to go back to edit. Occasionally, the cursor just sits there
where I clicked.

3) It's great that pgadmin has the ability to copy (and paste) rows from the
result pane. If it was also possible to select just a particular cell that
would be even better.

Thanks

That is by design - see the Max characters per column config option:

Can you reproduce this with 1.6 beta3?

In 1.6 you can select rows, columns or arbitrary cells/blocks of cells.
