Description:
Workbench Editor remembers last choice of content type (one of the tabs).
When a BLOB containing an image was viewed (Image tab selected) and next BLOB a user is trying to view is not an image, Workbench will crash.
When Text or Binary tab was selected before a user wants to view non-image BLOB, all is well.

How to repeat:
Right-click on a BLOB field containing a graphic image to Open Value in Editor.
Select Image tab.
Close Editor.
Right-click on a BLOB field NOT containing a graphic image, attempting to Open Value in Editor. Workbench crashes with:

Hello!

Thank you for the report.
I'm seeing this issue with 6.2.4 and with provided steps but no longer seeing the crash with the same steps on latest WB 6.3.6. Could you please try and confirm the same?

Thanks,
Umesh

I can confirm that problem I reported no longer happens in WB 6.3.6

But let me make couple related comments.

1. WB 6.2.4 Help > "Check for Updates" was telling me that it was still the latest version.
2. WB 6.3.6 now rendered a number of my connections unusable. Attempting to connect I get: "SSL connection error: protocol version mismatch". That's despite having set option "Use SSL" to NO. Server instances (MySQL 5.5.35) report variables have_openssl and have_ssl = YES but have expired certificates. Version 6.2.4 has no problem communicating with these servers.

I suppose I may/should turn second point into a new bug report as I have not been able to find anyone reporting this as yet as a problem.

Again, as for the original problem - it is resolved with WB 6.3.6 and this bug report can be closed.

Thank you for your assistance.
