workbench now stores window state/position, side-panel sizees on close and restores these settings on start.
this will be included in 5.0.23

An entry has been added to the 5.0.23 changelog:

Workbench failed to restore window states, window positions and side-panel sizes from the previous execution of the application.

This is marked as fixed, with a lot of others marked as duplicates but, as far as I can tell, Workbench 5.2.11 never remembers pane sizes.

For example, if I open a connection tab and resize the schemata side pane and the bottom overview pane, then close and reopen the connection, all the panes are back to their default sizes. The same occurs if I exit the application and reopen the connection tab.

Furthermore, the state of the schemata tree (i.e. what is expanded/collapsed), the schema selected in the overview pane, and the view (large icons/small icons/list) selected in the overview pane are also not restored.

Expected result is that the pane sizes, positions, and settings are remembered.

My platform is Ubuntu Linux 9.10.
