Database Structure tab: 5. When creating a new table with 10 columns the window is just too small: this window should show only for simple cases when only vertical scrolling is necessary. [1]
Piotr, even without Ajax (therefore without a jQuery dialog) the window is too small unless you have a monster screen (I don't).
I too don't have it, but the dialog is much smaller than frame.
"Mandatory" fields are the column name and type (maybe length/values); what about introducing a mechanism to hide the other fields by default, and revealing then in a clever way (just for one column when the user needs them) ?
Probably a bad idea, I believe most users would like to have all options available instead of having to look for some "more" button each time they create a table.
Let's hear what "most users" have to say on this :)
Looking at my own behavior when I create a table, I can assure you that I would not use the "More" button very often (once on the primary key and on columns having a default value). Also it would be in the same direction as the new 3.4 Export Quick/Custom interface (set to Quick by default).
We could have a user preference to turn off this behavior.
We already have a similar behavior for ENUM/SET columns (Get more editing space).
