Description:
I'm having problem every time I create a new table at the model, when I synchronize the model with the database. When I try to create for example a table with a filed type CHAR with length 5 for example, the workbench always create the field with CHAR(1) length, doesn't matter if I change it for 10, 20, 100... always get CHAR(1) when I synchronize.

How to repeat:
Just create a table with a CHAR(10) field for example

An entry has been added to the 5.2.26 changelog:

When a model was synchronized with a live database, CHAR(n) columns were always synchronized as CHAR(1).
