Inkscape Alt + Drag Select not select group members but the Whole group - select

I like the Alt + Drag Select in Inkscape, able to select objects in an efficient way.
Sometimes I need to select the whole group the drag path touches, but not it's members,
Any one know is there some options to activate to do this kind of operation ?

No, that's not currently possible in Inkscape.

Customizing name of "Query Results" tab

I'd like to customize the name of each Query Result tab to something other than that default name.
I use to execute multiple queires, but each time the the output displayed as QUERY RESULT 1, QUERY RESULT 2 .... so on. Its difficult to identify and verify the matching SQL Query.
so i want to set the QUERY RESULT tab name, so that it displays(Output) the customized name instead of Default Name. E.g (setting to Table_name, search names, key words to identify the parent query triggered) etc.,
You cant rename these tabs via code/SQL, but you can use your mouse.
But you really shouldn't need to.
"Its difficult to identify and verify the matching SQL Query"
If you mouse over the tab, it shows you the SQL/code behind it. You can also click the SQL button to copy the code to the clipboard.

How to find a table in a big diagram?

Using MySQL Workbensh 6.3.7 on Windows 10, I am finding the search behavior strange.
There is an entry box that you could use to enter the name of the table, however, this does not work every time! I mean it sometimes finds the table and sometimes it does not! When it works, it is very good. I can enter 1 or more chars from start and the tool would highlight the table in the diagram, for some tables, even entering the full name, it does not find the table!
If I go to a specific table from the tree on the left-hand-side nav, and double click the table, it opens its properties, but it does not select it on the drawing area!
I have generated the DDL and searched it as text to find columns and relations then traced that back manually but this is difficult for large diagrams.
I want to be able to search for a table (even with wild card) and find it in the drawing surface - Also, what does the dot at the right side of the table name in the schema treeview mean?
The search behavior sounds like a bug to me. It should always select the table figures that match. When you file a bug report for that (http://bugs.mysql.com) it can be fixed.
The dot in the catalog treeview is just an indicator which db object has been placed already on the current diagram.
A tip: use layers to organize bigger diagrams. Use colors for different groups of db objects, like this:
You can change the colors on the Properties tab in the lower left corner, even for multiple figures in one step.
And don't forget you can increase the size of the diagram to fit more figures on it. See the menu Model -> Diagram Properties and Size....

How to auto-complete all columns in "select * from table" in SQL Server Management Studio

Write this:
Select * From tablea
Want this:
Select c1, c2, c3 ... From tablea
SQL Server Management Studio provides intellisense to pick one column at a time. It takes a while for table with lots of columns.
I can use Script Table as =>Select To=> New Query Edit Window, and the copy/paste to my original script. however is there a less interruptive way?
I write SQL a lots, thanks for help!
Found this myself.
Type Select * From TableA in SSMS.
Exactly Select text Select * From TableA.
Use Ctrl+Shift+Q to pop up Query Designer window.
Click OK. "*" is replaced by "c1, c2, c3..."
Query Designer auto-populates all the columns. just open it & close. if you want only portion of columns, I found it is still easier to delete them on text editor than trying to use mouse to uncheck them on GUI.
Still hope to find a way to eliminate the Keyboard/mouse switch on step 4? seems there is no short-cut key for the OK button.
Update 2019-06-24
Above method does not work for table in SQL Azure. ApexSQL SQL formatter seems working well for me, it's free.
Update 2020-10-30
found a similar function in LINQPad, it allows me to auto-complete all properties in LINQ, See here
In SQL Server Management Studio if you expand the object explorer and then the node for the particular table in question then you can drag the columns node into the query window and this will type out all of the column names for you.
There are probably better ways to do this, but that's what I use.
Totally understand this answer is not specific to SSMS but in VSCode via the mssql extension:
Write this:
Select *
From TableX
Place cursor after the * and press Ctrl+Spacebar and option to insert all columns appears
If your object explorer is open then use drag & drop feature.
e.g. Northwind
Step 1: Expand the database by single click on plus icon or just double click on "Northwind"
Step 2: Expand tables "Tables"
Now you will see "Columns", "Keys", "Constraints" etc
Click on "Columns" to drag to your editor window.
You can try for other as well like "Keys", "Constraints".
But for "Indexes", did not work for me.
Hope you will find useful tips.

how to pre select elements on a ListSelectionDialog in eclipse?

Call setInitialSelections with an array containing the objects you want to select. This must be done before calling open.

Multi Select Drop Down Using chosen.jquery.js

when i select index 0 then all Previously selected item should be remove. Is this possible? i have multiple chosen drop down in same page...i have tried so many things but didn't get the proper solutions yet.
I am not sure what you mean. If it is multiple select, it means you can select "multiple" items, otherwise it's a normal select. Also see this and check out if it provides something helpful for you.
