Subject: Filter by Selection on Grid
To:
pgadmin-hackers@postgresql.orgHi,
I have been using PgAdmin for a while now and since I've been quite used to MSAccess, I feel quite limited by the options available while viewing data in a table.
I have tried to add a simple ('Filter by Selection') feature such that on right-clicking a cell of a table, only the rows that match the particular value in the given column are displayed. Although the patch works (except for corner cases like NULLs) I have absolutely no idea whether it conforms to coding guidelines.
Since I plan to implement most of the basic features that MSAccess provides on right-clicking a cell in a table, I wanted to ask a few questions:
1. Is this a good idea in the first place ?
2. Is anyone else working on it ?
3. Whether this patch needs any more work ?
4. If this is fine, should I start working on the other options as well ?
It'd be great if anyone could take a look at the patch.
Thanks a ton !
