When double-clicking a cell in a resultset that is of type text/longvarchar, and selecting the "Edit data" menu item from the context menu, the text from the field is shown in an textarea in a dialog for editing. However, the dialog is is so small, and can not be resized, so it is almost unuseable. It would be nice if it were larger and/or could be resized.
Created attachment 125248 [details] proposed patch v1 The attached patch does two things: 1. enlarge the default size to 20 lines by 80 columns 2. make the dialog resizable (a hack, but it works) this changes the custom editors for character (mysql supports very large varchars) and CLOB editors.
