Thread: Beta 3
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hi<br /><br /> Firstly, congratulations on beta 3. An issue I had with the timeit took to for the object browser to refresh has gone away (I was waiting for the logging fix I raised to investigatemyself), and the issue with tabs in the query window has also been fixed. The performance of the graphical querybuilder is now fine as well.<br /><br /> Could I raise a few small points?<br /><br /> 1. Query window forgets undohistory when it loses focus.<br /> Under Vista if you switch to another window and back to a query window the the undohistory is forgotten, the find and replace and cut menu items are disabled (although still reachable with ctrl-f).<br/><br /> 2. Graphical query builder<br /> The message boxes "No SQL query was generated" and "The generated SQLquery has changed. Do you want to update it?" become rather trying after a while (at least to me). Could they not appearas status bar messages?<br /> The first one would be fine as is, the second raises another slight issue. The statusbar could say something like </font><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">"The generated SQL query has changed."with undo reverting to the last sql, but what actually happens is that their is a clear window in the history aswell, so you need two undos to get back to the previous SQL - This is a little confusing could they be grouped as a singleundo?<br /><br /> 3. New Server Registration<br /> While DB restriction is fixed in server properties, it is not actuallyused or stored in </font><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">New Server Registration i.e. entering a DB restrictionhere has no effect.<br /><br /> 4. The Links in pgAdmin III help do not all work<br /> I noticed this lookingat Connect to Server where at least the pg_namespace link does not work<br /><br /> Anyway many thanks again for agreat piece of software!<br /><br /> Kieran<br /><br /></font><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br /><br /><br/><br /></font>

This sounds like it might be related to a copy/paste issue that Ashesh has sent me a patch for. Ashesh, can you check that please? > 2.

If I'm honest, I prefer the positive alert for the second message. I could be swayed on the first though. > 3.

Ashesh, can you investigate that as well please? > 4. The Links in pgAdmin III help do not all work > I noticed this looking at Connect to Server where at least the pg_namespace > link does not work That's from when the PG docs used to be in the same HTML Help file. I've changed those links to point to the PostgreSQL website. Unfortunately I don't see any way to point them to the actual help source without implementing our own version of the help browser. > Anyway many thanks again for a great piece of software!
