Features Request - clearly identify which connections are active and which databases worksheets currently connected to

Daren JanesJul 28 2025
  1. Bold folders that have active connections and bold the connections that are connected. You can see a tiny little plug on the connection if it is active today, but that's way too small. Would like to see the connections bolded where it easily stands out. I have many folders separating systems in dev/test/prod.

2. Have the ability to assign a short alias to a connection. Say for example FINDEV is an alias. Once you connect a worksheet to that connection, the worksheet gets the alias prepended in front of the name you give it. Example. (FINDEV) Untitled-4.

I know the connection is in bottom right of screen, but if you are scanning many tabs your eyes lose focus. The connection information is too far away. I propose a short alias rather than the full connection information in the worksheet name because that would be too much real estate for those us with a dozen or more worksheets open.

Thanks
