Hi all,
May I use Sequel Pro 0.9.3 (from Applications folder) and 0.9.4 RCx (from another folder, say an Applications folder located in my Home folder) w/o any conflicts (especially preferences file conflict)?
TIA

Hi JJBee,

The RC will use the same preference file, which should be the only conflict. Normally this wouldn’t be an issue, but using the versions side by side will have an issue: 0.9.3 had a column width bug where tables with lots of columns squashed up the last columns, and then saved those widths as custom widths to prefs. 0.9.4 fixes the original bug, and also cleans up your saved custom columns to fix squished columns – but only once. So if you’re using them side by side and have tables which suffer from the column bug, you’ll no longer have the damage automatically fixed.

Other than that I don’t think there’s been any preference format changes…

Hope that helps.

I’ve been waiting for quite some time for pagination. Thanks :)

Where are the actual pagination buttons?


 
RowanB March 8th, 2009

kris: they should appear next to the slightly confusing “LIMIT FROM” text next to the filters.

That part of the interface is still a work in progress – for example, you can use the steppers to choose a much later page, but the page won’t be updated until you press return (or click the Filter button). This is useful functionality to have but it’d also be nice to actually page through the data with a single click/keyboard shortcut!

RowanB: Yeah, next and prev buttons would be best. Thanks.

Hi all,
RowanB: thank for your answer.
Unfortunately, I have little time to test this new release. :^(
Thanks for all this hard work. :^)
