Suggestions and bugs for SQL Assistant |
|
1 bug (kinda) and 2 suggestions.
Bug:
The DB Connections properties has a misnamed parameter the entry 'DB name' should be 'Server Name'. (An really DB type should be 'Server Type') This messed me up at first.
Suggestion 1:
Allow pressing up to move to the bottom entry in the drop down list. This would really speed up finding the correct item.
Suggestion 2:
Allow pressing control space to work after FROM
ie
Select *
from (Ctrl + Space)
This would then bring up a list of items that are listed for the default schema (dbo). This would save me a lot of time because all my tables are dbo.tables.

I agree "server name" label would be more appropriate for SQL Server connections. "Server name" "db name" means virtually the same for Oracle connections, but it sounds confusing for SQL Server connections. In fact for Oracle connections it should say something like "TNS name" or similar.

Do you mean auto-rotating the list selection?

It already works this way. The assistant popup doesn't appear only if cannot parse the sequel or something wrong with the connection.

I will need to see what I am doing wrong so that Ctrl+Space is not working for me.
As for the first suggestion. If I type dbo.MyTable and I have the following list:
MyTableOne
MyTableTwo
MyTableThree
MyTableFour
MyTableFive
To Get to MyTableFive it would nice to press up the up arrow and have the selection move to the last item in the list. (Rather than pressing the down arrow five times.)
