We’re proud to announce the next release of MySQL Workbench, version 5.2.30. This is a maintenance release focusing on general product improvement and usability. In addition to that, we have added a small set of Text-Formatting-Plugins to the SQL Editor to help format/structure your SQL Queries.
As always, we want to thank everyone for the great feedback we have received. This helps us to continuously improve the functionality and stability of MySQL Workbench – we appreciate all your ideas for improving MySQL Workbench. Please keep sending us your ideas!
