how do I get DBeaver to show a Save button? - dbeaver

I want a save button that I can click with the mouse, but when I focus on a SQL editor page and file and do >Window >Customise Perspective >Edit actions, it's greyed out and says "Save (Ctrl+S' command cannot be made visible in this dialog.
DBeaver Community v6.0.5.2019... Windows 10 Enterprise 2016
It's just a simple thing so I don't have to keep switching between keyboard and mouse.

This is some months old so it may not be relevant for you, but this may help others (I was brought here as the lone google search result and had to keep poking around until I found it)
anyway, in DBeaver menu select Window>Preferences>DBeaver>Editors there should be a checkbox for 'Show Edit toolbar'. Check that and apply and close. Exit and restart DBeaver and it should have buttons for save/undo/etc. If it still does not, go to Window>Customize Perspective and the 'Edit actions' toolbar items should no longer be unselectable so you should be able to add them to the toolbar from there.

How to wrap line in PyDev's interactive console?

Each time I want to view a long output line, I have to drag the horizontal scroll bar. Is it possible to set word wrapping in PyDev's interactive console (not editor)?
Unfortunately no, it's not currently possible to enable word wrapping in the PyDev interactive console.
You may report this as a feature request in https://www.brainwy.com/tracker/PyDev (but even better would be providing a pull request for that -- see: http://www.pydev.org/developers.html)
It is now possible as of PyDev 6.2. By default it is not enabled. To see the icon that you have to click to enable visit this. For the possibility that the link disappears, go to the console tab and you will want to look for an icon which has a yellow "left-turn" arrow and click that.

How to see errors in MySQL Workbench 6.1?

I recently upgraded my development machine to use MySQL Workbench 6.1. I am trying to enter some data into a table using the workbench and "Select rows..." When I click the "Apply" button to insert the data, the workbench reports that an error occurred (see the image below), but it doesn't tell me what the error is. Workbench 5.* used to show the errors. I cannot find any way to get Workbench 6.1 to show me the errors. How can I see the error messages?
If you are on linux machine this solution will work.
It is already there you have to move your mouse and expand it:
At first it will look like this:
you have to hover the mouse until the cursor icon change to resize icon.upward
then click it and pull
and then you can hover on cross sign scroll right to see the error message completely.
I eventually worked out that the panel could be opened by hovering my mouse at just the top of the status bar (at the bottom of the UI).
The hit area is tiny so you really have to 'feel' around for the drag point.
If you are not seeing any sql errors or exceptions this could be one off your problems.
Toggle the button in the picture
button panel of mysqlworkbench
To cause MySQL Workbench to show error messages, I had to change a preference. From the Workbench menu, click "Edit" -> "Preferences..." Open the "SQL Queries" tab. Check "Confirm Data Changes".

Console disappear in Eclipse Juno

I am using Eclipse Juno. I was working in Java perspective and suddenly I minimized the console. I don't know where it went but I am unable to get it back. I even tried to get it from Windows>Show View>Console but I didn't get my console back.
It happened the same thing to me. Just click Window->Reset Perspective and everything will be back as it was when you installed eclipse.
Sure you'll have to customize it back to how you like it, but at least you'll have the console back.
If console is not visible, just search for "Console" in QuickAccess box on the right hand top of menu bar. you can get it back!
Stupid Eclipse. Are there no interface designers volunteering on this project? Why minimize something and make it hard to see where to bring it back? Probably all you have to do is hit Shift-Control-Tab-F9 with one hand while right-double-clicking the lower left hand corner. Hmm, how about a popup when you click a minimized Console that says "We see you've minimized your Console and you are clearly trying to switch to it. Would you like us to restore that so you can actually see it?" followed by "Are you really sure? Cuz ya know, you may be using this click path by accident."
The reset perspective works. Also, you can "Save Perspective" so it's not so hard to go back to your preferred Perspective.
Thanks for the tip.
Bring console to the front from Window -> Show View -> Console. Apparently the console remains invisible (that was the issue indeed), but it is virtually active in the foreground.
Close the current view (i.e. the invisible console) by going to the "Quick Access" box at the toolbar, typing "Close Part", and selecting the respective option on the drop-down.
Reopen console form Window -> Show View -> Console and voilĂ , it will appear. Drag it to your preferred location on the workbench.
This works for me under the following situation:
I had been previously playing with detaching several views (console included) and editors to a separate window on a different monitor; I have updated my workspace from Neon to Oxygen and I have had a hard reset at my computer. (So, not sure which among those was the reason that made it go wrong).
I wanted to avoid resetting my perspective, as it is highly customised, so I discarded that solution.
Other solutions herein proposed had not worked.
The console was working and the view became visible if I chose a different perspective (e.g. Debug) or a duplicate Eclipse window (which effectively provides a duplicate of a factory-reset perspective).
you could click the small icon on the bottom left and choose console. it will appear.

Xterm right click misbehaviors

When I open linux eclipse IDE from windows using xterm(Reflection, MobaXterm), I found few problems:
When I right-click on a project, the menu appears for a millisecond, and disappears with a click action on about.
Sometimes the menu appears on right click, but if that menu has more items, usually it should scroll down/up, but the scroll button staying behind windows tast bar.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks in advance!
I have the same issue too. It seems that the right-click menu disapears behind the Eclipse main window and behind the Windows taskbar...
Here is the workaround I use currently: in MobaXterm 5.0, just go to "settings" --> "X11" and choose "Windowed mode with Fvwm": this will open an X11 window.
When you run Eclipse using this tip, it correctly displays the right-click menu.
I hope this helps!
I googled but didn't find a solution.
For the first one, you can right click and hold it, move the mouse to the target menu entry, then release it.
In this way you can avoid a wrong click.

How to disable Eclipse's behavior of maximizing editor when double clicking a tab?

I recently updated my Eclipse (now running 20100218-1602), and I've found whenever I click around quickly between tabs on the tab bar, it will sometimes maximize the editor and hide the PHP Explorer to the left. After researching a little, this appears to be a feature of double clicking a tab. So I guess it's my fault, I'm sure I'm clicking around too fast and mistakenly double clicking a tab, but it happens often enough on what I'd consider a normal editing session that I've come to absolutely loathe it, and even after the usual googling due diligence cannot figure out how to turn it off.
From this post someone mentions the Window.AutoHideAll shortcut, however that seems to only be for assigning keyboard shortcuts--this is a mouse click thing. But maybe it's a clue.
I can't find anything relevant under Eclipse -> Preferences -> PHP. I don't think it's specific to PHP because if I switch to the Java perspective, double clicking a tab hides the Package Explorer.
Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!
You could settle for a simpler solution than some arcane settings or shortcut:
resize your Eclipse main windows a bit smaller
drag the views you do not want to be covered after a "tab double-click" outside the main Eclipse window
there is no 3.
When you double-click, the Editor will cover only the main Eclipse window, while the other views will still be visible just beside that window.
