Description:
After upgrading from MySQL Workbench v6.1.6 to v6.1.7 Visual Explain function stopped working - it displays only text version of explain.

In v6.1.6 there are Query Plan, Raw Explain Data and Explain tabs displayed, in v6.1.7 only Explain tabs is available.

How to repeat:
Start workbench, connect to database, start Visual Explain for current query.

Suggested fix:
Downgrade back to MySQL Workbench v6.1.6 - Visual Explain works fine in that version.

Hello Michał,

Thank you for the bug report.
Verified as described on Win7 with WB 6.1.7 and confirmed that 6.1.6 works as expected.

Thanks,
Umesh

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.2.2 release, and here's the changelog entry:

Under certain conditions, Visual Explain would only display the raw
explain data.

Thank you for the bug report.
