:: DEVELOPER ZONE
The General Options section allows you to specify a
number of settings that are valid for all graphical MySQL applications. At the time of writing, MySQL Administrator and MySQL Query Browser are the only programs in the MySQL
GUI suite, but other programs will follow soon.
Store Window Positions: When an application is
started the next time, its recent window positions will be reused.
Show Tip of Day: If checked, a pop-up window with
the tip of the day appears at program startup.
Store Passwords: If checked, passwords are stored
in the user's connection profile. In this case, you can
select the password storage method:
Plaintext means they are stored without
encryption; this can be insecure. Obscured means
they are encrypted using a weak algorithm. This encryption method,
however, is operating system independent. Selecting OS Specific will use the default encryption method provided by your operating system. The default option is Plaintext.
Language: Select the interface language. The
default is English.
Default Font: The font used for all aplication text.
Data Font: The font used for all query and table data displayed.
Code Font: The font used for all queries entered by the user..
Ignorelist: Whenever you check the Do Not Show This Message Again option on error and message prompts, they are added to this list. If you would like a particular message to be shown again, click the Remove button after selecting the message from the list.
You may change the font and font size of any of the application fonts by clicking the Choose ... button to the right of the font.
