Browser show datatypes in lowercase

[Jean-Paul Finne]

It is convenient to see the datatype next to a column in the browser.

The datatype is displayed in uppercase making it difficult to read.

Could you display the datatype in lowercase or in a smaller font ?

An other option : longer tooltips.
For a column it could display the datatype, nullable, default value, comment.

For a table, comment, primary key,...
For a function or procedure: arguments and
return type
For a trigger: before/after , insert/update/delete, for each

...

I have added these suggestions to the list of enhancement requests.

Currently the Object Browser shows everything in uppercase, so I guess the option should affect all information.

Note that you can change the font of the Object Browser (Tools > Preferences > Fonts). You can select a smaller font size, or a narrow font.
