Grid-related feature requests

The grid in Heidi is a good part but could use a little more love ;)

Here are my suggestions:

• allow removal of column from grid
• allow searching for a column in a grid
• show which columns are keys (perhaps an icon in column header would be nice)
• allow drag and drop of field header to editor
• allow exporting to xlsx (with basic formatting, such as header colored, column widths adjusted to content etc)
• add grid toolbar (customizable) so that we can put most commonly used features there
• add line numbers to grid; clicking on that number should select whole row (for easy copy-pasting)

If you are talking about table's Data grid almost everything from your list is already there.

• allow removal of column from grid

RMB (right mouse button) over grid header

• allow searching for a column in a grid

Ctrl+F / Ctrl+R or use menu

• show which columns are keys (perhaps an icon in column header would be nice)

Keys hints are already shown in grid header. I do not find them useful here as quite often we wave a column used in a number of keys.

• allow drag and drop of field header to editor

What for?

• allow exporting to xlsx (with basic formatting, such as header colored, column widths adjusted to content etc)

RMB over the grid | Export ...

• add grid toolbar (customizable) so that we can put most commonly used features there

I do not think that this is really useful. Hot keys?

• add line numbers to grid; clicking on that number should select whole row (for easy copy-pasting)

Row numbers are useless in most cases when we are working about databases. You can just LMB on a row to select the row or use Ctrl/Shift + LMB to select multiple rows and then RMB | Copy selected rows if you like.
