Changing Colour of instance

[DavidFerrington]

I'd like to be able to change the colour of an instance - that is the background colour, instead of it being grey. If not the background, perhaps somewhere else I couldn't miss.

Preferably this could be configured to be set when a fixed user is used to connect or based on a combo of user and db.

We have a policy of identifying production hosts with a different colour, and I use that (in Toad I'm afraid) to help me spot I'm on a dev/uat/prod host and if I'm the owner etc.

Any chance?

preferences->user interface->appearence->Connection Indicators

for example if all your poduction instances start with 'P' then *@P* is entered into Match

wow - I completely missed that option - but I don't appear to be able to get it to work.

is the match string case sensitive?

ok, got it, needs wildcard, sorry missed that in your post - thank you again
