Connect dialog need to be redesign. It should better deal with database schemas and when it is connecting the user should be informed about the progress (progress bar or something like that).
I suggest this solution: 1.Remove second TAB named Advanced and put row with Schema's ComboBox under info about Connection. 2.Add Button "Get Schemes" to the right side of this ComboBox. 3.Put Progress indicator with status label at the bottom of dialog. 4.Use Wait cursor when server is connecting.
Adding keywords UI and PERFORMANCE
After a discussion with Dusan we decided to let the dialogs as they are and add only progress bar to the botton of each dialog.
this issue will be marked as verified because it's quite old
