SEARCH BAR

[DoDo]

After trying to put "Search bar" into bottom there was an exception saying something about "lost parent window" and after that "Search bar" is "lost in space ", how to get it up and running?

Does it help if you disable/enable the search bar from the "Edit" menu? Can you also let me know your PL/SQL Developer version?

 

[DoDo]

No it does not work! I tried to disable/enable milion times. Tried everything, but still does not work.

My version is Version 8.0.1.1502

And, by the way, feature to show table attributes while editing triggers after ":New." or ":Old." keywords also stopped to work?

Can you clear the docking layout by deleting the following registry section?

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Allround Automations\PL/SQL Developer\Docking3

Note that the docking layout will be reset to its default, so you will need to redo any customization you had made.

It's still working fine for me. Is this 100% reproducible for you?

THX this worked OK!

Noticed that sometimes it doesn't work. When I find out when, I'll write a new post.

Tried to use the searchbar. Fail
It appears in the top of the screen. When I try to move into any other location, I get the same error message. My luck is, that I turned off "autosave desktop", so when I restart PL/SQL Developer, the search bar goes back to his default location.

Other question : Is there a hotkey to jump to the search text of the search bar? Or only mouse click?

 

[Marco Kalter]

We'll check it out. There is currently no function key to go to the search text of the search bar. I have added this to the list of enhancement requests.

References to :new and ld should always work when your trigger is ON

and, as of now, it should never work when you declare it ON .

. I reported this in another thread (sorry I hadn't seen this one before) and Marco said this will be ok in 9.

Code completion for :new and ld is ok in v9b1.
