Description:
The columns on the Status and System variables tab cannot be re-sized, thereby making it difficult to view variable values larger than 3 or 4 characters.

How to repeat:
view any group of status or system variables and try to re-size the values column.  The cursor will change when positioned over the column border, but unable to move the column divider.

Hello David,

Thank you for the bug report.
Verified as described.

Unlike windows - WB on OL6(Linux) didn't allow to drag the separator between name|value|description...

Work around: Double click on the separator(|) and try to drag then it allows to drag/resize

Thanks,
Umesh

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.2.2 release, and here's the changelog entry:

The three columns widths under "Status and system variables" can now be
resized.

Thank you for the bug report.
