Fix Request: Target Connection/db Box Too Narrow In Copy Database Dial

[werecougar.maine]

In the right panel of the “Copy Database to Different Host/Database” dialog window: The drop down for the “target” connection/DB is too narrow.

I prefer to use the machine's hostname as the saved connection name. After I tack on “DEV” or “PRODUCTION” onto the end, the actual names of the databases are hidden. So I have no idea which database I am selecting. See attached image. There are two databases on that “production” server, but I don't know which is which.

Would it be a simple fix to allow the drop down to expand (once it's opened for selecting) to show the full info?

Or, what about using two linked drop down boxes: The first lists justs connections, and the second lists databases within the selected connection (from the first box).

I have added a note to an existing report in our issuetracker:

http://code.google.com/p/sqlyog/issues/detail?id=1621

We should find a uniform solution that may be used everywhere in the program.
