Edit view (DDL) to notepad ++ keeping on adding brackets

Hi all,
I am using notepad ++ connecting to postgres 9.2 db.
Got sql assistant's database explorer open and am right clicking on a query then edit view.
The code that comes over is the same as from the db but it just has so many brackets around the code.
Especially around how the joins connect, and the where statement
eg
JOIN Sometable t3 ON ((((t1.id = t3.id) AND (somethingelse = 0)) AND (somefield = (-1)))))

WHERE ((t1.somefield = 0) AND (t2.somefield2 = (-1))) AND ....

anyone know how I can stop the parsing doing this?
Have checked the manual for all things DDL but.. well here we are.

What do you see in view_definition column in information_schema.views catalog for that particular view? Does it have extra brackets?

	Code:
	select view_definition from information_schema.views where table_schema = ... and table_name = ...

Yes it does. So Postgres stores it with all the brackets and then PGadmin (which is what I was viewing it through) strips them all out.
Is there any way that SQL Assistant can strip them out.?
The whole reason behind this is that the queries get compared with previous versions which come from pgadmin. Understand that I could use the schema view to get the old data and them compare.

the information_schema.views returns view defitnition as it is stored in the system catalog tables. The same should be returned by

	Code:
	SELECT definition FROM pg_views WHERE viewname = 'view name here'

and the same should be returned by

	Code:
	SELECT pg_get_viewdef('view name here', true)

I guess pgAdmin reconstructs the view definition on it's own that's why it doesn't match the saved definition. I'm afraid there is nothing SQL Assistant can do to match pgAdmin behavior.

Just in case, if you need to compare view definitions across multiple databases or servers, you can use the Schema Compare feature of SQL Assistant.

Just one of those little things.
Thanks for you time and congrats on a very good product. Have been so happy to use.
