PostgreSQL Maestro 6.6 released

Jun 9, 2006

A new version of PostgreSQL Maestro, a powerful Windows GUI solution for PostgreSQL server administration and database development, has been released.

Please consider the list of all new features implemented in PostgreSQL Maestro 6.6:

Server management extensions:

It is now possible to enable/disable a trigger (PostgreSQL 8.1);
Rows' OIDs are now displayed in the data grid for tables created using WITH OIDS option;

Interface improvements:

We have implemented the Object Browser tool, which operates like Object Manager, but includes some additional features such as properties grouping, filtering, and sorting. For example, it is easy to find all tables which have more than 10 fields or all domains based on INTEGER type in a few mouse clicks. You can also open several objects' editors simultaneously as well as drop all the selected objects by a single operation;
All system objects such as pg_catalog or information_schema can be displayed in different colors (purple by default). A color can be set in the Options window (the Explorer tab);
The connected databases are now displayed in bold everywhere (object editors, Object Manager, Object Browser etc);
Definitions of domains based on INTERVAL(n) data type are now displayed correctly.
The Describe Object command is now included into the popup menu of each objects as well as into navigation bars. Use it to specify the object's comment without opening its editor;
The F8 and Shift+F8 key shortcuts now can be used to open/execute queries in the SQL Editor. F9 and Shift+F9 work too.

In addition to this several bugs were fixed and some other minor improvements and corrections were made.
