  Hi,
  
  Nice new future to edit tables in the Table data pane.
  
  I like an enhanchement. when a blob field is empty please display the text lowercase (blob …) and when there is something show it uppercase (BLOB…)
  
  It would be much easier to findout where there is something in a field.

  That is a great feature request!
  
  We will put an UI hint for empty/non-empty blob.
  
  Any other suggestions for the UI hint?

  Lower case just doesn't say “this field is empty” to me. I'm not so smart and need a more obvious clue.
  
  How about “blob… (empty)” as the displayed text.

  yes .. a proposal …
  
  could be
  
  BLOB (empty)
  
  BLOB (data)
  
  In case the viewer can recognize the data format the type of data could be displayed like
  
  BLOB (filetype) – if the filetype can be identified by the viever
  
  ie:
  
  BLOB (jpg)
  
  BLOB (txt)
  
  BLOB (wav)
  
  probably “repainting” the buttons here should run in a seperat thread not to slow down things …
  
  For the more than two years I've been using Sqlyog the BLOB viewer has not been updated. I think it's about time to do something about that. The release of 4.1 must be first priority – control features for the new stuff in MySQL 5.0.x (stored procedures and adhancements to user management first of all) second priority (I guess that is the main issue with 4.2 – right ? )
  
  – but what comes after that ??
  
  Here was another request concerning the BLOB viewer
  
  http://www.webyog.com/forums/index.php?act…t=ST&f=6&t=1337
  
  … where I also had some comments.

  What suggestions do you have for BLOB data viewer?
  
  Maybe you can mail me a graphical representation of what you want?

  Personally I don't have any needs at the moment.
  
  But I think at least it should support more pic formats (new formats arising (espec. 48 bit formats) due to development in digital photograpy)
  
  There was also the request to display the binary data as what they are: binary data!
  
  But I don't think you guys at webyog should spent a lot of time with writing code for more formats. I proposed instead a plug-in model and/or a possibility to launch an external application and save data transparently back to the base …
