Thread: Restore dialog
Hi Dave, A quick suggestion for PgAdmin's "Restore database" dialog. When you restore a database, you select your file and options, then click "OK" and the restore does it's thing and finishes, showing you the output from pg_restore. However the button stays as "OK". So you instinctively click it again to close the dialog, and it tries to do the restore again - you have to click Cancel or close the window instead. Can this be changed so it's like the backup, where you click OK to start the backup, but once it's finished, the OK button changes to "Done" and closes the window when you click it. Thanks Andy.

Hi Andy, They actually do work the same - if the external process returns a non-zero value, it's assumed that you may want to try again with different options (or having tweaked the database) so the button doesn't change. If zero is returned, the button changes to 'Done' because the task completed successfully. Regards, Dave
Ah OK thanks for clearing that up. Whenever I do a restore, it always warns that the plpgsql language is already present, hence returns with code 1. Thanks Andy.
