[RFE] per-object window settings in database documents
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:45:41 UTC
Currently, only the window settings (i.e. window size) of forms is persistent in database documents. However, in real-life databases, I often have different queries showing different aspects of the database, and work with those queries instead of full-blown forms. Unfortunately, for queries (and, for that matter, also for tables) the window settings are not persistent: If I open a query, adjust the window size so that it optimally fits the content, close and re-open it, the layout changes I just made are all gone. I suggest that the window size is remembered on a per-object basis, for all objects - tables, queries, forms, reports - in a database. Additionally, I suggest that for all objects those objects the settings are remembered separately for different modes. That is, if I design a query, I probably want to have another window size than when I view the data resulting from the query.
