Thread: Is there a way to go straight to the edit grid?

Is there a way to go straight to the edit grid?

From
Chris Green
Date:
I have been searching for a way to edit a database (didn't have to be
pg) using a datagrid for quite a while.  Pgadmin seems to provide just
what I want with its Edit Grid.  However I want the user (me) to be
able to get to editing a database as quickly as possible.

So, two questions:-
   Is there a way to navigate 'automatically' to the Edit Grid?  The   command line options will allow me to open a
specificdatabase but I   can't see any way to get to the Edit Grid without having to click   some buttons and/or
navigatemenus.
 
   Less important - is it possible to skip the splash screen?

No.

Also no I'm afraid (unless you want to build and run a debug binary).

The main issue with the data grid is that it relies on the pgTable
object, which makes it almost impossible to launch without starting the
browser first.
