This message popping up every time a query finishes in query
window is completely annoying. I hated it with pgadmin2, and it was one reason for me to write pgadmin3. And people in the same room working with you will soon hate it too, unless you remove your speaker or beep device.... I removed it.




Please put it back with an option to switch it off if you

dislike it so

much. I hate running non-queries and not seeing that they have obviously completed.



Later we might add some animations (spinning thing in right side of the toolbar, and vacuum needs something too)
The idea behind the query window is that all input is in the upper half, and all output is in the lower. Messages are mostly duplicated now, (message page and status line), and triplicated with that msgwindow. I just changed frmQuery so that in case no result set is returned the message page is selected.



Mmmpph. Still doesn't make it obvious to me that a long running query has completed. I'll try it out, but if I find it's no good then the message box goes in with an option to enable/disable it.



This is becoming quite an option grave.... Don't like that either. It looks as if we couldn't decide what's working and what's not. Options should merely be for dividing beginners from advanced users. I'd really like to stick to a consistent behaviour.
You might complain that the logging facility isn't sufficient for you, but that may not mean that the message window doesn't reflect what's going on with the *current* query. Then we'd need an additional logging page. And the possibility to save it to disk. And a clear option. And ...?



And? That sounds good to me though the save to disk and clear options are unnecessary

Right, you may cut-and-paste to KWrite instead of saving and clear is already implemented with Alt-F4 :-)

(yes, I realise you were being sarcastic). We are trying
to build feature rich software after all. Session logging is a useful
feature that's been in both previous versions of pgAdmin. pgAdmin II
even added a query recorder option to allow logs of sessions to be
maintained in a useful format.


"History" might even be a better title for that page.

Andreas
