Hello Jennifer,

Thank you for the report and feedback.
Initially thought this could be duplicate of Bug #112640 (which itself is marked as dup of Bug #97595 but doesn't look duplicate actually). I quickly tried with MySQL Workbench Community (GPL) for macOS version 8.0.38 CE build 4270059 (64 bit) on macOS 14.x Sonoma arm64 but not seeing the issue as reported. Attaching the screenshot shortly.

To investigate further this issue at our end, may I kindly request you
to launch workbench under debug mode (--log-level=debug3) and provide
unaltered workbench log file(more details about log are explained here

along with screenshot of the problem? Thank you.

regards,
Umesh
