UI Table tools (like export database as SQL) broken due to incorrect width in settings

Hi,

Since today (on linux mint) the "export database as SQL" (and other table tools) dont show the right side of the ui. So i do see the database/table tree but not the export options.

I removed 12.17 and installed the latest .deb but the issue remains. Before removing 12.17 i backed up my settings I also tried removing the settings with rm -rf ~/.config/heidisql/ and imported my settings, but that did not work.

Removing the settings and setup a new connection DID work. I exported those settings and compared them with my old settings and this was the problem: TableTools_TreeWidth<|||>3<|||>8931

I replaced this with: TableTools_TreeWidth<|||>3<|||>649 and now it works fine

Don't really understand why it saved such an absurd number, well maybe user error :) Still, there is no horizontal scrollbar or something to indicate that the treewidth has an huge number. (and shouldn't the code see that the parent window is smaller than the sum of its childs elements?

Another thing i found while importing my settings was that my ssh tab settings where re-imported, but not activated. They were activated on my previous install but the import code does not activate the checkbox it seems.
