Status:	Won't fix	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL GUI Common	Severity:	S5 (Performance)
Version:	5.0-r12	OS:	Windows
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any
Tags:	advanced parameter, Connection, encryption, SSL

Description:
When trying to ssl-enabled the GUI tools, the advanced parameter tab only shows one field row,with no way to add rows for more parameters.

How to repeat:
Try to configure a connection with more than one advanced parameter

Suggested fix:
workaround:
create and save a new connection with the first advanced parameter configured.
close client.
open the file
"c:\documents and settings\username\application data\mysql\mysqlx_user_connections.xml" in a text editor.
add <advanced_option></advanced_option> tags for the remaining parameters needed to set.
reopen gui client and go to the advanced parameter tab again for the connection.
there should now be extra rows equal to the number of tags added to add options in.

Thank you for the bug report.

Many thanks for writing a bug report. We are on the way to implement full functionality of MySQL GUI Tools into MySQL Workbench. We won't fix this anymore.
