Saving column widths in result grid in MySQL Workbench

Every time I run a query, the column width in the result grid in MySQL Workbench is reset:

Is there any way to prevent this? According to the bug tracker , this problem was fixed 3.5 years ago.

Thanking, this annoying bug was fixed in Workbench version 6.2+. I tested it with just downloaded v6.2.3.12312, 64-bit.

If you use the Windows version without installation (for example, zip): there is a new dependency that, if absent, causes it to break at startup: Visual C ++ Redistributable. Fortunately, the installer version checks this and allows you to download it first. If you do not use the installer, a direct link to the Microsoft website: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784 .

It seems that the problem with this problem is open:

Open a SQL editor to a server and execute a query that returns some text fields, the columns don't autofit to a reasonable width to display as much as they can (or set in the Preferences as I believe 256 bytes..). Instead they are displayed in a super narrow table taking 1/20 of the screen width.

It seems to have changed from 6.1

Another way to expand the panel

Let me know in case you find it difficult.
