Hidden column in the running queries tab

[snehavikram16]

How to get back the hidden column in the running queries tab. I have tried selecting through the column pop up window but nothing happens. Can someone guide please

Selecting the columns button in the toolbar or using the columns context menu option will load the dialog that allows you to change the visibility of all the columns in the grid. If the column is checked there, it should be visible. If that's not working, check that you are on the latest release. If it's still not working, post back with details on which column(s) you are trying to make visible. Screenshots might help to explain the issue.

It seems that some of us done see the button but one of my colleagues does see it. We have the same desktop display settings too. Any insight on why we are experiencing this.

That's weird. I've tried messing about with the display scaling and I can't reproduce the issue. I have a potential fix where the controls are docked rather than using the anchoring to resize with the form. I also added some keyboard shortcuts to the OK and Cancel button which can be pressed using Alt+O (OK) and Alt+C (Cancel). Can you try this out and let me know if it works. The fix is available on my fork of DBA Dash here

Follow the manual upgrade process. You could just update your GUI client as long as the repository database is 3.21. The only change is the Columns dialog fix.

If it works I'll include it in the next release.

hello David, we upgraded to 3.21 but it's still does not work for me. My colleague is able to see the ok and cancel plus he is now able to use the keyboard shortcuts too. The screen resolution is identical for both of us. We will ask further in the team and get back to you.

Hi, did you try the custom build of 3.21 in the link I provided above? The official 3.21 release does not contain the fix. The version numbers are the same which is confusing, but the version I made available on my fork includes this additional fix. I think it's likely to fix the issue but I have no way to confirm. Once I get confirmation it works I'll include the fix in the next official release.

Version 3.23 has the fix now. If the fix doesn't solve the display issue it will at least provide a keyboard shortcut to workaround it. (Alt+O)
If the display issue is still there I might need some help working out how to reproduce it.
