I’ve been using PGADMIN for a while now and one of the most painful things is when I have many tabs open to do my work…
The tab names in PGADMIN are extremely long. Eg: “TheNameOfMyDatabase/myusername@PostgreSQL 11”.
When I change tabs my other tabs go off the screen and I have to use the tab arrow keys a lot to navigate back and forth.
So I only really see a couple or so tabs at any given time.
I know what DB I’m connected to and I know my user name as they also appear under the tab. So all I really need is a tab number to help me navigate the tabs quickly.
The short tab names would mean I could have many tabs showing at the same time across the top of the screen for fast tab switching.
Could we please have a configuration option to just have numbered tabs rather than the current naming convention or some other simple and short name sequence please?
Maybe the feature already exists and I don’t know where to find it – any help would be appreciated.
We have a similar kind of request https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/4232, please refer to it and check the proposed implementation in the comment section. If it doesn't suit you then make a comment over there .
