Description:
Any change to the default value of 60 seconds in the Advanced panel of a Connection's settings is not saved. The next time the connection settings is opened, the figure has reverted to 60.

The log file contains no record of changing the Timeout value.

How to repeat:
Open Manage Server Connections.
Select a connection.
Click on the Advanced tab under Connection.
Change the Timeout value.
Click Close.

Open Manage Server Connections.
Select the same connection as before.
Click on the Advanced tab under Connection.
Verify that the Timeout value has reverted to 60.

Suggested fix:
Save the Timeout value before the next dialog event is processed.

Thank you for the bug report.

This issue applies to the legacy MySQL Workbench 8.x implementation that is no longer supported or maintained.
MySQL Workbench 26.7 is a complete rewrite using a new technology stack and does not use the affected legacy implementation.
Therefore, this issue is not applicable to the current MySQL Workbench product and as such is closed.
