How to repeat:

Prerequisite

	Have a table with an index defined using text fields 
so you have to specifie key column length

--> in screen shot i1 you see that in the table editor the key column lenght
is displayed as field-name(lenght) where in the 'Schema Inidces' tab yoo only sie field-name

Start Administrator 1.2.9
Open Catalogs
Select from Catalogs a database having a table like the one above

In the right pane select table in 'Schema Table' tab, and say edit
In this case it is the table te.
keep the Table Editor open
Now activate the 'Schema Indices' tab and open the Index using text fields
In his example PRIMARY.

--> in screen shot i1 you see that in the table editor the key column lenght
is displayed as field-name(lenght) where in the 'Schema Inidces' tab yoo only sie field-name

Many thanks for writing a bug report. We are on the way to implement full functionality of MySQL Administrator into MySQL Workbench. We won't add this feature request anymore.
