Re: Pin files in Open Recent menu
I would like to broaden this issue into a question and/or complaint. Every morning when I open DbVis, the same 6 files automatically get opened in tabs. They are not "recent" files, in that I haven't used them -- I close them and open other files in the "Recent files" list. Then if I close DbVis and restart it, the files I just opened are NOT there in the tabs...instead, it's the Same Six that were there the first time I opened it.
DbVis appears to be opening the top 6 files in the Recent Files dropdown, which would be OK if there was a way to change the order in the list and have it stay that way. As it is, every day I have to close a bunch of tabs (files) that I haven't used in weeks, and then go hunting for what it was I was using *yesterday*.
So, isn't a Recent Files list supposed to keep track of files that are *actually recent* ??

Re: Pin files in Open Recent menu
David,
What you describe is new to us.
I suggest you to:
- Start DbVisualizer
- Close all open SQL Commander tabs (and even Object View tabs) so that the DbVisualizer logo is displayed
- Now close DbVisualizer
- Open DbVisualizer
- Based on your post the editors are restored?
- If they are, close all of them so the logo is visible
- Close DbVisualizer
- Open a File Explorer and navigate to C:\Users\\.dbvis\Workspace/default/window-0
- Remove all files ending with *.sql and *.met
- Start DbVisualizer
- Now there *should* not be any editors opened
Now use DbVisualizer as usual and keep us updated if the original problem happen again.
Regards
Roger

Re: Pin files in Open Recent menu
Thanks for the quick response.
It appears that the step of closing ALL the tabs does the trick. I did that, closed and re-opened DbVis, and the logo was displayed -- no tabs. I opened a couple of recent files (from the list) and did the close-and-re-open, and only those two files were open in tabs.
So if it happens again, I'll just close all the tabs and restart. If it misbehaves in a reproducible fashion, I'll let you know.
thanks
