Description:
My apologies for submitting this as a bug, as I highly suspect that is isn't actually an error, but I can for the life of me find where the 'table' tab used to be before I upgraded.

When editing a table in modelling or in an EER Diagram I sued to have the following tabs:-

'table','columns','foreign keys','triggers'... etc...

however now the 'table' tab is missing.

On this tab you were able to set the defualt collation and the storage engine for the table. I need to change the storage engine for some of the tables in my schema and I cannot find where to do this.

How to repeat:
Open an EER Diagram and edit a table.

Hey Robert,

this tab has been removed as it contained not much info. Instead the values displayed formerly there are now part of the table editor above the controls for foreign keys etc.

Btw, the bug database is not a support forum. You can get help from our forums or the irc channel. See also: http://mysqlworkbench.org/?page_id=16

Ok many thanks, apologies for posting in the wrong place.

I have submitted a post in the forums - as I still cannot see where to change the storage engine for a table in a model. I see that you can change it when editing a table in the SQL editor, but this would only update the table definition in my model if I reverse engineer.

This may not be a functional bug, but the documentation still refers to this non-existent tab, so that would be a documentation bug.
