SQL Dev 4.x User Interface Question

BuntoroMay 21 2015 — edited May 28 2015

Hi all,

SQL Dev 4.0.3.16.

I just try the new SQL Dev 4.x and notice several UI changes here.

1. Query Result background is turn to white instead of gray.

How do I change it back to gray as before?

Below image shows when the query produce no result.

I prefer gray is more suitable for background displaying Query Result than white.

![02 - Grid No Result.png](https://objectstorage.us-phoenix-1.oraclecloud.com/p/BqK85Rn1zA5MP0vYiqbAdPgs7Z6OmMxw8SD3WCFVm5kY8uReidZ1KPIKkgJ1hCkG/n/axciphqpnohg/b/forums-legacy/o/uploads/jive_attachments/7/1/0/71052154egami.png)

 We can see the difference here for displaying Popup Describe, there is some inconsistency.

 The background in Columns tab below show gray over white.

2. Code Editor - Change case as you type.

When I select None, SQL Dev still changes the code into upper case format. The upper case also effect to the code completion (Ctrl + Space) drop down list as well.

Giving tick nor untick seems does not change the behavior on selected case as well.

Is it a bug?

3. Database - Worksheet

Grid in checker board or Zebra pattern is an interesting feature.

How do I change the color behavior for this?

Instead of Yellow - Gray, can I change the color into White - soft Blue for instance?

Based on example on Excel or other SQL Client tools, one of the row should be white and the other is non-white.

And also, why make the even column to be darker than the odd column?

Can I choose same color for both odd and even column?

4. Pinning the Result Grid using Shortcut.

Ctrl + I from Worksheet does not Pin the current query result.

Ctrl + I (Pin) works only when we select one of the column in Query Result.

Is it a bug?

Regards,

Buntoro
