Hi,
If this is not the correct place for pgAdmin 4 feedback, please let me
know. I am trying to switch to pgAdmin 4, even though its beta, because
pgAdmin 3 often crashes, and I lose work - I see that is a known issue,
but am not sure if a fix is in progress?
Anyway, in pgAdmin 4, I have noticed the following when Opening a File
in Query Tool:
- Clicking the icon to open the "Select file" popup is very slow
(Windows 10). >3 seconds for pgAdmin4 wheras <1 second for pgAdmin 3.
- I am presented with a list of directories, but no idea which
drive/directory I'm already in (e.g. C:\) and no obvious way to switch
to my other drives where the files I want are located. I can't edit the
file path directly to change this. This makes pgAdmin 4 unworkable for
me currently. Beta 1 did allow directory changes.
- Only the first 10 characters of filenames are shown even though
there's much more space available. This means I can't distinguish
between a lot of the files I need to.
- When viewed as a tables, the order of directories seems random - not
by name, size or date, and ordering by those columns doesn't work
I appreciate the preference for a consistent look and feel, but the
native Windows Open File dialog (as used in pgAdmin 3) seems quicker and
more fully featured e.g. I can rename and move files and directories
within it. Perhaps it doesn't work with the new web based paradigm though.
I appreciate the work you are doing,
Regards,
Mark
