Description:
The "create new schema" feature has a display problem on my machine.  I can type in the new schema name but I do not see the letters that I am typing, as I type them.

After entering the schema name, entry field remains blank/empty.

If I click on the "ok" button, the schema name that I typed in is created.

How to repeat:
1. Run MySQL Administrator
2. Click on Catalogs
3. Right mouse button click underneath the last catalog name and choose "Create  New Schema"
4.  Try to enter the schema name, as you type each character, you will continue to see a blank field.

My screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
I have "large fonts" enabled.

Oops, I meant to say "display problem with "create new schema" dialog" :-)  I corrected the title.

Thanks for reporting!

Could you verify the fix by downloading the internal release 1.0.11.4 from ftp://ftp.mysql.com:/pub/mysql/download/mysql_administrator_gpl.msi

The font should now be changed to Tahoma in the entire application when fonts are set to large in a Win2k system. This should eliminate the bug.

I can now see the database name that is being entered.

Thank you,
