In the "Export Finished" dialog there is an option to open the exported file (shown as a link). What I am missing there is the option to open the containing folder. Because most of the times I just want to send the exported file to someone. So I need to go to the folder, zip the export file and send it as an attachment.

Please make Toad remember the last save location for one click export (I mean right click on grid > Quick export > File). Default foder for one click export is always "my documents" in XP. This is annoying.

The window list lists all tabs that are open. However, it doesn't adopt the connection colors that is used on the tabs itself. The tab colors should be applied to the window list as well. (Either color the whole item or just mark them with colored bullets)

I usually have many editors open at the same time. To avoid scrolling right/left each time I want to change the tab, I suggest that you provide an option to allow multiple rows for the horizontal tab bar. Of course I can always use the window list, but then I need two clicks each time I change to another tab.

Make the tab bar scrollable. Scrolling up/down using the mouse wheel on the tab bar should shift the tabs left/right. (this can replace the two arrows on the right hand side)

Now in 5.7 beta, tabs have icons on them. Editors have a notepad icon, viewers have a magnifier icon and so on. I suggest that you omit the words "Editor ..." or "Viewer ..." from the tabs to save screen real estate. The user can already tell if the tab is an editor or a viewer by looking at the icon. However for the tabs that are less frequently used (e.g. Data diff viewer) you should keep the name.

I just got to know about "Idea Pond". I appreciate the effort to keep track of feature requests in a better way, but I think the community sites for Toad are already way too fragmented. - For Support: Mailing groups or toadworld (toadforsqlserver.com) - For Bugs: Quest support (why should anyone bother filling in that crappy webform in order to be able to report a bug?) - For Feature requests: Idea Pond - And also for ...more »

- For Support: Mailing groups or toadworld (toadforsqlserver.com)
- For Bugs: Quest support (why should anyone bother filling in that crappy webform in order to be able to report a bug?)
- For Feature requests: Idea Pond
- And also for other Toad variants (Oracle, DB2, Mysql, ) totally separated communities (which makes sense to some extent)
I just don't understand why you just don't merge all these stuff in a single environment like launchpad or something similar.
