Colored logins

[Valgar]

Constantly switching from DEV, TEST, STAGING and PRODUCTION... it would be great if I could assign different colors to each login / database.

So I could, for example, set frames and/or background to red on TEST, yellow on STAGING and green for any live production connection.

You can go to Preferences > User Interface / Appearance and define "Connection Matches". You can define a color based on the username and database with wildcard expressions (e.g. *@*prd or sys*@*). The color can be applied to various user interface elements.

You can additionally assign a color with a Connection Definition, overriding the Connection Matches.

I've appreciated used this great feature for years.

Just a hint for Valgar...

This has worked great for me:

White background = DEV
Light Yellow = PRE-PROD (warning)
Light Pink = PROD (Danger Will Robinson! Which gives you an idea how old I am)

Perfect, thanks, (sorry for a late confirmation)
