How can we improve the product?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  1. Unable to fix bugs

    I have reported a few bugs over the past few months, and although you are good at responding and looking into this there seems to be a few bugs that you can't seem to get right.

    1. Upgrading. It is always painful. Links that you publish to download the upgrade don't work. There are always licencing/activation problems, etc. I upgraded yesterday as advised (having gone through the normal pain to find the right place to download), and everything seemed to work. Yet today I am asked to enter my activation key yet again. Why can't you just make the upgrade seamless?…

  3. Autocomplete doesn't work if table belongs to schema and no alias or schema name used in join.

    Example:
    select *
    from Schema1.Table1 join Schema1.Table2 on Table1.[AutoComplete doesn't show table fields]

    select *
    from Schema1.Table1 T1 join Schema1.Table2 T2 on T1. [AutoComplete works properly]

  4. F3 button not working properly

    Normally, if I do an incremental search (CTRL+I) or a normal search (CTRL+F), pressing F3 takes you to the next location of your search text in the current file. With DBForge it seems to jump all over the place. The only place it doesn't take you to is the next location in the current file, which basically makes it impossible to use.

  5. Skin styled images not showing in menu

    If you set "Use styled images" in options, all the icons/images use this setting except for the cell edit cascade menu... as shown here:

  6. Invalid error line for "Display Estimated Execution Plan"

    use this script for test:
    DECLARE @FILENAME AS NVARCHAR(500),
    @FILE    NAMEPRE AS NVARCHAR(500),
    @FILE    NAMESUF AS NVARCHAR(500),
    @SQL    STMT AS NVARCHAR(MAX)

        SET @SQL_STMT = 
'SELECT 
        t1.*,
        CASE WHEN c1 IS NULL
             THEN ''Y''
             ELSE ''N''
        END AS [COLUMN1],
        t2.c3
   FROM t1
   LEFT JOIN (SELECT *
                FROM (VALUES
(''v1'',''v1'',''v1''),
(''v2','v2','v2''),
(''v3'',''v3'',''v3'')) RET (c1, c2, c3)) t2 ON t1.c1 = t2.c2 '

    if you press "Display Estimated Execution Plan", then the first line will be highlighted with an error: Incorrect syntax near ','.
    But if you press "Execute" then correct one will be highlighted

  7. Autosize

    Last beta version does not autosize the result set (regression). You have to retrieve multiple times to get the results aligned properly.

  8. Ao tentar executar consulta na primeira vez

    Quando executo uma consulta pela primeira vez, após a carga da aplicação, nada é exibido. Somente após fechar uma das janelas é que consigo voltar a visualizar a saída dos resultados.

  10. DBForge Studio is not handling DATETIME2 in MSSQL Server

    CREATE TABLE #Table1 ( c1 int, c2 DATETIME2)
    ;

    SELECT * FROM #Table1;

    INSERT INTO #Table1 (c1,c2) VALUES (1, SYSUTCDATETIME ());

    --dbforge returns: 7/29/2015 8:58:48 AM
    --sqlstudio returns: 2015-07-29 09:00:32.5318459

    -- we are missing the nanoseconds

    This can be setup as follows:

    1. Select ‘Tools → Options’ from the main menu. The ‘Options’ window opens.
    2. Navigate to the ‘Data Editor → Formatting’ branch.
    3. Select ‘DateTime’ from the ‘Data type’ dropdown menu.
    4. In the ‘Predefined Formats’ list, select ‘General date/time (longtime with microseconds)’.
    5. Click ‘OK’.

  11. Profiling mode should use parameter

    I can set parameter for my query. But if I use profiling mode, DBForge 5.0.337 ignore the parameters.

  12. Problems with schema refresh

    I use version 4.5.60 and do the following: I edit a table (remote connect to SQL2012Express) and add two new columns (one bit, one int) with NOT NULL and Default Value. I click "Script change" and I execute only the two ADD COLUMN statements. It works, I check it with "Retrieve data". I close all tabs and go to again to "Edit table". I get the old schema (without the new two columns). I close your application and start it again: all works fine!
