Using wxw 2.9.3, latest 1.17 pgadmin: This is not an error, just a suggestion for improved interaction. When viewing data from a table or view, begin by selecting all data. Then click on the funnel icon to get the dialog that allows you to enter a sorting order or a filter. Pops up no problem. Now, the issue is that when it pops up it obscures important information that you might need for the sort or filter. It appears to very effectively cover not only the existing data (not much of an issue, since you are about to change that), but also a whole chunk of the field names which you will need for typing into the dialog box. Thinking that all you have to do is move the dialog box to reveal the field names, you find that dragging the dialog box drags the parent window with it. Objective defeated. Ok so you think, no problem, I will get the field names from the SQL pane on the main pgadmin window which contains the create ... instructions with the field names. But here, while the main window is selectable, the vertical and horizontal sliders are non-functional until the dialog box in the child is dismissed. So the only way so far is to cancel the dialog, gather all the info, and start the dialog over again. I guess there are a number of ways of dealing with this, including making the field names available inside the child's dialog box (provided in the sort dialog but not the filter). But the simplest would appear to be, if possible, make the dialog box draggable independently of the parent to reveal the field names and types. -- --- Colin Beckingham 613-454-5369 http://www.it4gh.com
