Description:
The underscore character in database names is not displayed correctly in the "Reverse Engineer Database" dialog, "Select Schemata" step.

Instead of appearing as it should, the underscore appears below the next character, as if the next character has an "underline" style.

I've uploaded an image to my web server:
http://www.jbruni.com.br/mwb_bug.jpg

In the linked image, you can see the bug behaviour when displaying "fundacao_saisql" and "information_schema" databases in the list.

How to repeat:
I've only installed MySQL Workbench 5.2.41 in my Ubuntu 10.04 system, and then tried to generate an EER diagram drom existing database.

The list of databases appeared with the described "error".

Suggested fix:
I don't know if the issue is at MySQL Workbench code or at some library it uses.

The fix must make the database names appear correctly.

Fixed as of the upcoming 5.2.43, and here's the changelog entry:

 The "Select Schemata" step of the
 "Reverse Engineer Database" wizard would not
 display the underscore character correctly. Instead it would
 appear as an underline to the next character.

Thank you for the report.
