Highlighting First Row of Candidate List

I raised this earlier but had no reponse

When you have a <Table> INNER JOIN <Another Table> ON , then space the candidate list suggests joins , no problem . However , there is no selected item on the list so you have to either mouse to it ,arrow key to it or pick the first letter of the suggestion to select the candidate list.

Not a big issue but very niggly when you expect it to happen and you "skip" past it and have to undo it all

Cheers

    Hi Mike,

    The selection behaviour for v4 has gone through some modification wherein no suggestions are highlighted when the suggestions box pops up. But on typing in the first char the first item in the suggestion box gets selected.
    The reason for this change being, that we did have users from the past and from usability reviews who found the automatic selection behaviour quite annoying/intrusive as they had to manually backspace to remove when suggestions got inserted inadvertently.
    However, I have logged your request in our database and we will review it for the future versions.

    Sorry for having missed your earlier post:(

    Thanks,

    Thanks Tanya

    Funny I find it irritating not to be there , maybe because SQL Prompt is SOOOO good it always gets it right for me

    Its also a design thing I suspect if you keep you FK's and PK's with the same name in both joined tables it works like a charm , I hate the prefix PK...ID and FK...ID , which also sometime fools SQL Prompt

    Still I'm happy to live with it
