Hidden feature: Select columns in database tab

Written by ansgar 5 years ago Category: News 4027 posts since Fri, 07 Apr 06	Today I discussed some SQL problems with a collegue, looking at HeidiSQL. He wondered if I could tell him the size of the index of one specific table. The simple solution: In the database tab, rightclick somewhere on the column headers and activate "Index length": Also supported: - "dragging out" column headers with a left mousedown + move to hide a column - Column moving - Column resizing All options are internally saved to your settings so the list layout is restored the next time you start HeidiSQL. These feature were implemented about a year ago, but they're probably the most hidden ones. Hope that helps anyone at similar problems :)
