Can't view Results if SQL Editor hidden

[bfalling]

For SQLyog Enterprise 4.01 (beta) downloaded Jan. 18, 2005:

If the SQL Editor pane is hidden, I cannot View Data by right-clicking on the table in the Object Browser or by selecting the table in the Object Browser and hitting Enter.

Hitting Enter generates an error beep. Right-clicking and choosing View Data does nothing at all.

Fantastic job in general though!

Confirmed … but is that a problem for you ?

Is it making me lose sleep? No 🙂

But it *is* a bug, as far as I'm concerned, because in maximizing my screen real estate, I often keep the SQL Editor closed (or at least do frequent toggling of it open/closed via the keyboard shortcut), so it's inconvenient.

Plus, I believe it's non-intuitive that closing the window would disable View Data functionality.

So, not a big deal, and I really like the editor, but since you asked… 🙂

OK 🙂

probably they will fix it will som upcoming release …

This feature is by design.

“View table data…” option actually inserts a SQL stmt. in the SQL window and then executes it. So you need to have SQL window to be visible to use it.

>> ritesh:

well — it could be done even if the sql editor pane was not visible to the user.

But I understand that that would mean quite a big change in code structure.

>>bfalling:

then don't close the sql pane but pull the divider between the sql pane and the result pane upwards instead.
