Rename Tabs
It would be very helpful to rename tabs, or at least provide a customisable format beyond the default. It's very hard to remember which SQLx.sql tab you need to switch to when you've got several open at once.

This feature is available in dbForge SQL Complete and can be setups as follows:
1. Select ‘SQL Complete → Options…’ from the main menu. The ‘Options’ window opens.
2. Navigate to the ‘SSMS Caption’ section. -

Add ability to also search in SQL Server Agent Jobs for references to stored procedures, tables etc. to dbForge Search.
Redgate SQL Search has this functionality.

Automatically Update Schema Cache when Editing Objects
When changing database tables or code with dbForge, auto-complete won't adapt to the changes until the cache is manually refreshed.
You can force a refresh using the Edit menu, Code Completion, then Refresh Local Cache. There's also a hotkey for this-- Control-Shift-R.
That said, when dbForge is making a change to an object, it should automatically update its cache for that object without us having to manually refresh the full cache.
This is also a suggestion for your MySQL product:

Extensions, plagins, add-in
Do you plan adding user extensions for the IDE (plagins) or some other mechanism to extend the functionality with external utilities?
For example:
- Using the external xml (you could include the editor), add an ability to add menu items (main, popup menu for a database, object, in the editor) where an external program with parameters will run (on a modal window) upon a click: current connection string (with a password, asking the user's permission), current database, current object type, current object name, etc.
A return code will tell what to do ( -1 - error, 0 -nothing to do, 1-update…

Rename tabs individually
There should be possible to rename a tab. This should override the SSMS Caption template. It should not override the filename if it is a file that is saved to disk.

Database Diagram Foreign Key Improvements
The routed line that maps relationship of the table to the parent with a foreign key align the line drawn between them to the columns mapped, so that easy to visualize the exact FK column matching visually.
That an additional display option allowed. Instead of just CONSTRAINTS alone, offer a Foreign Key option. This pane at the bottom wouldn't be the name of the foreign key, but instead the myid - references Accounts(Id) This would make the documentation easier to use.

Have an option for unlocking a DB that dbForge has exclusively locked
When I try to restore a database (from SSMS on the server), sometimes dbForge has the DB exclusively locked and the restore fails. I end up then needing to close all my tabs in dbForge, and then shutting down dbForge.
Why not have an option to release dbForge's lock on the DB?

CSV - Support importing data that uses brackets for negative values into money fields.
It is fairly common in other tools/database (like Access for instance) for exported money or currency type fields to represent negative numbers by putting brackets around the value. Currently when such values are imported they give a truncation warning and put the value in as positive.
(10.00) should go in as -10.00 instead of giving a warning and going in as 10.00.

Create virtual foreign keys in database diagrams without writing them into database
I like to create visualizations of Data Warehouses using dbforge. In a Data Warehouse, foreign keys are typically not created physically.
If I could create data base diagrams in dbforge, importing existing tables and creating virtual foreign keys it would be the perfect tool for DWH documentation.3 votes -
Add "By Name" filter to dbForge Search
Add a "By name" button next to DDL. This would be similar to DDL, but would exclude definitions (e.g., it would include SP name but not SP definition). This would allow use of dbForge to quickly look for for specific SPs or tables as a more convenient/faster alternative to SSMS object explorer. It is possible to set the object types to only include procedures, but doing so still includes contents, which makes for a search that is both slower and noisier.

column totals
Show column totals (sum) or average at the bottom of the column. This would be great with a right click of the column header then click then click Group Footer then click Sum or Average

LinqPad-like Script Browser
LinqPad has one useful feature that could be used here in dbForge Studio too. It has a panel which shows folder structure of one specific scripts folder (configurable location). In this folder users can organize scripts into subfolders (projects). And by double-clicking on script in this panel you open the script. This folder can also be synced (via dropbox or other cloud drives) so you have same structure and scripts on multiple machines. This is a similar feature request as project workspaces. Could be easy to develop and would really help us who work on lots of projects and databases…

Default Date Only on Datetime Picker for stored procedure parameters
When entering parameter values on a stored procedure of the type of datetime or smalldatetime the datetime picker defaults to the current time, but might better default to midnight or allow the user to quickly change the time to midnight (such as a button click) as it is too laborious to change all of the times to midnight, which I'd guess may be the most common usage for stored procedure/function datetime/smalldatetime entries (dates without the time).

It would be extremely helpful to have "tab groups" for open SQL scripts. It would be nice to help organize multiple scripts.
When working with multiple scripts, being able to further organize them in the editor panel would be helpful, especially as a DBA. Or, as an alternative to tab groups, perhaps a project panel where scripts can be organized into virtual folders for quick access could be added.

On the customer License Information page, add a user editable field where we can log who has which license.
I purchase the licenses for my dev team, so when I purchase two licenses, one for myself (SQL Tools) and a separate on for one of my devs (Schema Compare) I would like to indicate which is assigned to whom. Currently on the License information page, both appear assigned to me. While two folks is easy, if we grow our usage of your products further, I would like to know who I've assigned which licenses to, while keeping them all under the one account.
All I'm looking for is a field that I as the customer can note this type…

Filtering code completion
When you filter the objects in the Explorer->Tables view
It only logical that the auto completion in the Sql script would be filtered too.Maybe an option inside Options -> Code Completion -> "Use filtering on objects" would allow the user to select the desired flavor.
If you have that option selected, when you do a filter in object explorer, when you are writing a sql sentence autocompleting tables, it only shows tables with that particular filter.
Thank you.
