How do I get dbeaver to show the caret and table size - dbeaver

I am using dbbeaver Version 21.1.2.202107041908 on a mac. Yes.
Once upon a time there would be a ">" next to the word Tables and when I clicked it, all the tables would show with their size in mb next to them. This is no longer the case, instead the caret disappears when I click on it. When I double click public I get all the tables in another window and they're fine. I think I might have accidentally turned this feature off somehow. I've tried searching everything like "autoupdate" or "expand branches" or some such. It would be best to fix this, but short of that, what's the right vocabulary to investigate this issue?

If you have letters above the elephant and it doesn't relate to the name of any object in the folder, the carets will disappear. Can I just also say this was not a feature on pgadmin3 so it's not a solid picnic.

Change size of whitespace tab arrow character in VS Code

I am currently setting up VS Code on a new computer and want to maintain all the same configuration, addons etc that I had on my previous computer. I was able to copy all of the settings, fonts, themes I like, etc; however for some reason I can't figure out how to change the size of the Tab arrow character for whitespace.
In my old editor, the Tab arrow spanned two spaces, whereas on my new computer, the tab arrow only spans one space.
I've been looking all over, and tried googling any variation of "change tab character size", "modify tab arrow span" etc that I could think of. I seem to remember changing the arrow size at some years ago, which is how I got it in my old editor, but I've totally forgotten, and can't find the setting anywhere, neither searching in the VS Code settings, nor on google like I mentioned; the only things that turn up are for changing tab indent size from 2, to 4 spaces etc.
Here are some screenshots of what I mean, from the new VS Code editor and from the one on my older computer:
Current tab arrow size in VS Code:
Old tab arrows size (what I want in my new editor):
This is driving me crazy, and I'm sure it's a simple setting somewhere that I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated!
Edit: In case it is relevant, I'm using JetBrains Mono as my font, and its the same version of the font as from my old computer as well, I copied it over and installed it on the new PC.
To my shock, the issue resolved itself after rebooting my PC. Once again it would seem that the tried and true "have you tried turning it off and on again" continues to ring true in many cases.
The only explanation I can think of is that perhaps some of the font symbols for whitespace characters weren't fully updated for some reason after installing the JetBrains Mono font, which I had installed earlier the same day, and after rebooting my PC I guess all the characters were fully updated/refreshed, and now the longer arrow is displayed for the tabs; I guess this also means that there is no arrow resizing per se, and the arrow symbol for the tab is simply the font symbol.
In any case, I figured I should write this update as an answer in case something like this happens to anyone else in the future.

How do I choose columns in SourceTree history hiew

I somehow messed up my SourceTree history view and now cannot see any column except for description. I cannot find how to restore it.
This is Sourcetree 4.0.2 on a Mac.
I am sure that it has happened to me before but I cannot remember how I fixed it.
I managed to get it working
If you do a long press on the column you get a very volatile and awkward hand. If you just keep trying dragging to the right the missing columns sometimes appear.
It is very cumbersome and I find it amazing that this has persisted so long.

Eclipse working sets -- how to rename them? Also, can the error-icon be disabled?

After mild frustration with the difficulty to make top-level "plain old folders" within Eclipse for visual-organization purposes, I discovered that the thing I'm after is called a "working set". Hooray! But they don't seem to be rename-able, by any of the apparent avenues (right-clicking on it or using the Configure Working Sets window).
Is that just the way things are, since no one should be so lazy as to refuse making a new working set with the right name and transferring everything over? Or am I missing something obvious?
I also have a more minor question whose answer I already think I know. Can I tell a specific working set not to change its icon to have the "red X" when one of its children has an error? Nothing in the preferences under Debugging suggests to me the ability to turn off the automatic icon-changing. It's a useful feature, but I have a few simple practice projects with very basic errors, and I don't need the visual reminder to "fix" them, especially if they're in my "Practice" working set, whose icon I'd prefer not to change.
To rename a Working Set, you need to get to the dialogue of selecting a Working Set (click on the white down arrow at the top right of the package explorer > Configure Working Sets..), focus on your Working Set and click the "Edit" button. There, you can change the Working Set's name, as well as what's actually included in the Working Set.
There is no way (that I know of) to change the icon display to avoid showing the errors marker.

xcode 5: What's the best way to go back and forth between top of editor and where you were before?

So I've had this question for a really long time. Say:
You're working on line 1000 in the primary editor of xcode,
Then you realize you need to use class ABC but it's not imported. You go to the top of editor and write a line such as import "abc.h"
Then you want to go back to line 1000 and continue your work.
For now I've always need to use my scroll bar to scroll back and forth between line 1 and line 1000, which can easily get me lost. I know that in Eclipse+FDT you can do auto import (ctrl+1 to auto import a class), is there similar feature for xcode? If not, what's the best solution? Thanks in advance.
You can jump between line numbers by typing command + l.
You can navigate to the top of the editor by pressing command-upArrow.
Then to "go back" to line 1000 (where you were), you can press control-command-leftArrow.
Edit: Looks like Xcode does have a "Jump to Line" feature I was unaware of, as per Jonah's answer. You can definitely use that to do what you're looking for.
Xcode has no auto-import feature, nor does it have a feature to jump to a specific line, unfortunately. That may get added in a future release, but I wouldn't bank on it.
Your best bet is getting creative with Xcode's snippet features and its "Jump to Next Placeholder" command — you can create "marks" in your code with snippets and placeholders, jump to the top of the files to add imports, and jump back to your "marks" to keep coding. Create a new snippet that just contains a completion placeholder:
Type <#Mark#> into any text editing application (or even a file in Xcode) and drag the text into the Snippets pane in the right sidebar. This will create a new snippet with just a placeholder called "Mark".
Double-click the snippet to edit its information, changing its Completion Scope to "All".
Give it a completion binding (like "mark") that you'll remember to use.
Then you can create a marker whenever you want (typing "mark", then hitting tab), jump to the top of the file to add an import, and use "Jump to Next Placeholder" (^/ by default) to go back to the placeholder. You can then delete it and keep coding.
Alternatively, if you know vim keybindings and that seems too complicated, you may have some luck with the XVim plugin for Xcode that brings some vim features to its editor. Keep in mind that Xcode plugins are not officially supported, so unofficial support can be taken away at any time.

Why is the "Mark Occurrences" feature in Eclipse automatically disabling itself?

I never had this issue with Eclipse before (Eclipse Classic 4.2.2, Indigo) but it started happening on my new iMac recently, that it stops highlighting similar occurrences or variable names, etc. Then it automatically starts working just fine.
Needless to say its a pain when it doesn't show the multiple occurrences of variable names and I have to find them using Find.
I was wondering if there is a sequence of keys which I press by mistake which causes it? I haven't find an answer to this anywhere else yet.
Attached is the screenshot from the Preferences. As I edit this question, again the Mark Occurrences is greyed out and I'll have to check it again to make it work.
A work around for this is to click on e.g. the Outline view, and then click back on the editor. The mark occurrences should start working again. I don't know of a long term fix.
