Re: How to enable PgAdmin Query Tool Favorites

<p>Hi!<p><br /><p>I've noticed this too but had no time to research.<p>If I recall it correctly, there shows up some
differencein events order when building the menu.<p>May be, in buggy scenario, pgAdmin first checks the number of menu
items(0) and decides to disable, later the menu is filled with items.<p><br /><p>If You are on Ubuntu, could you try
withanother desktop environment? (KDE or Gnome instead of default Unity).<p>I remember that the bug shows up with Unity
only.<p><br/><p><br /><p><br /><p>Thursday, September 17, 2015, 4:18:34 AM, you wrote:<p><br /><div><a

class="rvts8">Asfeedback, works for me. I'm on openSUSE 13.2 latest pgadmin and I can save and retrieve queries. Note
thatthe add favorite remains greyed out until there is actually something in the query box to save. As soon as a query
issaved as a favourite, when you click the menu item the fav appears at the bottom of the list of options and a click
onthat brings it back. Manage favs remains greyed out until there is something to manage.</span><p><br /><p><br
