workbench feature request for error messages

[mark edwards]

hello all -

first off, up front, let me say this idiot LOVES the new workbench! this is one of the most valuable tools i have ever used. i now rank workbench right below firefox as my most valuable tools.


unlike everybody else, my complicated queries rarely works the first time. and i usually get some syntax error message.

when this happens, i have to "drag" the column-separator bar between "Action" and "Response" to see what my error is. and i have to do this every time. is there any way the "Response" can be opened up more so at least i can mouse-over it and see the error?

and while on the subject, when i query "show create table BlahBlah" its pretty hard to read the results on a longer table. i have to RIGHT-CLICK and select "Copy field content" then go into vi and paste it in order to read it.


and what happened to my swimming dolphin indicating database processing activity?

thank you,
