[...] You can take the new icon for a spin in our latest 0.9.7 Release Candidate. [...]

How about some screenshots of the new features or an explanation. Bullet points don’t cut it

@MySchizoBuddy: The release notes go into a little more depth ( http://www.sequelpro.com/release-notes.html#release_0.9.7_RC ); we will also give more detail in the post when 0.9.7 is actually released (please bear in mind this is just the Release Candidate for wider testing!).

I’ve got to say, the new paging system slows my work flow a little bit. It would be nice if there was a ‘go to last page’ button [>|] as well as go to first [|<].

That being said, the new favorites system is fantastic! It looks like you guys have begun to build in the ability to put queries into groups (based on the 'Untitled 1' group that exists by default)… and that would be a sweet add-on as well! I love the new name field, before I just put a commented out line '– Name of Query –' as the first line of all my saved favorites. Now I don't have to!

Also, it would be great if there was a little (+) sign to the right of the (Filter) button in Content view. Sometimes I'd like to filter my results by a couple of fields but don't feel like writing a query.

Aaaaaand, I'm sure this has already been suggested, but I'd love tabs under the Content section so that I could look at more than two tables at once without having to open up new window. At the moment, if I need information from a related table, I have a query in the query view and switch back and forth between that and the content tab. Though I will say, the inline editing and sorting in the query view has saved me a lot of time.

Sorry to be so long winded, but I spend hours and hours in your program everyday and it's completely changed my workflow for the better! Keep up the good work.

@Brad: Thanks for your comments!

A few quick responses:
– Paging: have you discovered that if you click on the pagination text (ie the bit between the buttons) you get a popup with jump-to? Not sure how to make this more obvious, and maybe || is the way to go…
– Query avourites: the “Untitled 1″ is actually per-connection, but I think this is only supported for .spf connections so far. Connection favourites will support this as well, soon!
– Graphical filter editing – yeah. There’s now a filter editor (Go to “Edit filters…” at the bottom of the comparisons box) for stuff you use often, but a Finder/iTunes-like filter should be arriving soon as well.
– Tabs: slightly more long-term!

Thanks for the reply Rowan! I had no idea I could click between the two arrows, that helps a lot!

I don’t like the new icon… It’s not of Mac style, it’s more like… Linux =/

Hi,

It’s really good to see progress carrying on. Congratulations to the whole team.

I have some questions:

- What news on the User Management functionality?

- When do you envisage implementing the ability to edit views, stored procs, stored functions and triggers? This in particular is the main issue for me. I am having to jump back into Navicat whenever I want to do any serious development. As I mentioned in my comment on the 0.9.6 post, something like the view you have in the table info tab, where it shows the create syntax. Offer an option to edit, which simply adds the DELIMITER $$ and DROP PROCEDURE (or whatever object) statements at the top, and END$$ and another DELIMITER ; to move back to semicolons at the bottom.

- Is it possible to reconfigure the key combo for auto-complete? I keep forgetting what it is and would like to make it CTRL_Space so that it comes naturally to a Netbeans user such as myself.

- Do you have any plans to move to an iTunes-like object navigator. This would allow a more drill down approach, showing all available databases, then within each, all available objects, grouped by type. If you go multiple-db, the top level could be database server, ie MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite/REALSQLserver

Re the icon – the new one is very nice, but I do prefer the old one, if I’m honest. It’s extremely distinctive.

Anyway, once again thanks for pushing this project forward.

Hey guys I just started using your program and I would like to ask for a disconnect button somewhere obvious. Currently you have to close the whole window and open a new one to make a new connection which is very silly. There is also no way to bring up your favorites again unless you make a new window. These both can easily be remedied with a disconnect icon. Thanks!

Just to add to the above, or perhaps tab support to be able to manage your connections and as a way to close and open new ones. thanks!
