Change preferences by connection

[Graham Oakes]

Hi,

is there any way that I can change the preferences (I'm thinking of display type prefs really) dependent on the connection?

i.e. I'd like to get a different look whilst connecting to production to development.

Thanks
Graham

Graham,

it's already there

Tools -> Preferences -> User Interface -> Appearance

And then in "Connection Indicators" you can add information what color to use for different servers/users.

Here is an example, I added red color for "sys@*" and "system@*", as well as for production servers.

So if I connect as dba or to a production system, it will look like this

And if I connect as regular user to development box, then it looks like this

Thanks Slava - just what I was looking for.

If the developers care, I love this feature!

I use pretty faint colors so it doesn't throw me off but it's always clear where I am. LOVE IT!
