Piper: Version 3.57 new Features

4-Apr-2004 -- news_V357

There is now more consistent support for the F7 and shift-F7 keys.. these move the focus to the next and previous windows respectively.
There is now introductory Intellisense-style support for object name hints.. when you are in the SQL Command Area, and you type part of a schema object (table, package, etc) or part of a table.column expression, try either pressing the "Context Menu" meta key (that's the key on your keyboard that makes popup menus appear in Windows applications) or if you can't find that key, try clicking the right mouse button. A list of valid names will appear allowing you to complete the object name you are entering. Try this before and after you type the period (eg. the period in emp.ename), to see how the behaviour changes accordingly. The Catalog Browser will be automatically populated with the object you have chosen, and possibly with other objects as well.
As usual, any feedback from our loyal users on this important new feature is welcomed.
