SQL developer UI disappearing off the desktop

Hi....
Anyone run into this? I'm running 32 bit XP. When I have really lengthy queries or updates that I execute via sql developer, the UI will sometimes disappear from my desktop, task bar, etc. etc. If I run Task Manager sqldev is still running as a process, but isn't visible in the 'Applications' tab. Everything seems to be ok once the long op completes.....it returns to a visible state and behaves normally.
Is this expected behavior?
Thanks in advance,
Bob

Drawing issues are typically due to other soft and drivers. At least make sure you have the latest drivers for your video card.
The latest JDK may also have improvements.
Generally, disabling Direct Draw in the \sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf avoids all there issues:
AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=trueHope that helps,
K.

  • How do I stop my MacBook clearing the icons off the desktop when I switch off

    How do I stop my MacBook clearing the icons off the desktop when I switch off the machine?

    Hi Matt
    After I create say a word document, file it on my desktop and then shut down my machine. The next time I open up the MacBook the file icon has been removed from the desktop. I can still retrieve the file in a folder labeled with the month I created it. But why has the OS removed it from the desktop and how can I stop it happening?
    It happens to alias icons as well!

  • I am using an external drive for a time machine backup. It has disappeared from the desktop. How do I get it back again?

    My time machine backup disc, which has been working ok for a couple of years has suddenly disappeared from the desktop. The time machine program tels me it is unavailable. I have checked that the drive is working by booting up in Windows. and Windows can see it  and read it ok. What has gone wrong, and how can I fix it?
    I have tried unplugging it and reconnecting, but it is still apparently not seen by the system.
    I could use Windows to reformat it, and start again, but this would loose all my previous backups, and I've no guarantee that the system would notice it even then.
    Has anyone any ideas?

    I think it's formatted on FAT 32 system, but I'm not sure. It's been working for a couple of years so far without any problems, so I think it must be compatible with Mac. The problem is that all of a sudden, the Mac doesn't acknowledge that it is present.

  • Downloads folder disappeared from the desktop?

    Hello!
    Mavericks user here. Today I was trying to find the downloads folder, you know the folder where all newly downloaded files end up on the right lower border of the screen, and are beautifully filed with the newest download at the bottom.
    So for some reason I moved the folder to finder, and it disappeared from the desktop. It is not in finder either. When I searched for it on finder I found the folder again, putted it back on the desktop, but now the downloads are ordered alpahabetically when I download a new file, it looks different.
    How do I restore the folder on the desktop in such a way the the newest files come at the bottom?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Do you mean in your Dock?
    If so, right-click (CTRL-click) > Sort by > Date Added
    If you mean you actuall moved it to your Desktop or created and alias then open the folder, Click the Arrange icon:
    and select Date Added

  • Startup disk disappear from the desktop

    Well, without any reason, The startup disk is disappear from the desktop.
    (Just only the startup disk)
    I found this 2 times before, once on my 8 cores Mac Pro, once on my iMac G5.
    I couldn't do anything to fix them, so I formatted and re-install OS.
    with my iMac, it ran Tiger before, there's no problem until I changed to Leopard,
    After about 2 weeks under the new Leopard,then the startup disk disappear from the desktop,
    it shown the hidden status in disk utility and could not mount it,
    So I formatted and back to install old Tiger.
    Everything's fine. that's really good Operating system.
    Bad luck, about 2 months ago, My iMac G5 had some problem with motherboard and the harddisk also damaged, I send it to Apple Thailand, They fixed it and send back with installed Leopard inside my new hard disk.(well... again)
    Now after a few weeks. it happen again.
    Startup disk disappear from the desktop.
    This problem never exist on my Mac Pro, just with the iMac G5.
    (Please don't tell me to check the finder preference about the sidebar setting.
    it's already set to show every items there even the iDisk)
    I wondered why I don't see anyone have problem with this.
    I'm really want to find the answer about this.
    I asked this question to Apple Thailand's support team but they didn't have any idea.
    Who's gonna answer this

    I found a solution to the problem and posted it here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1858340&stqc=true
    I pasted the solution below:
    from a Terminal window, type:
    ls -lOd /
    (That's lowercase ell, lowercase ess, space, minus, lowercase ell, capital oh, lowercase dee, space, forward slash)
    You should get something like this:
    hostname:~ username$ ls -lOd /
    drwxrwxr-t 32 root admin - 1156 Feb 8 20:35 /
    Sounds like you might see something like this instead:
    hostname:~ username$ ls -lOd /
    drwxrwxr-t@ 32 root admin hidden 1156 Feb 8 20:35 /
    (note it says "hidden" instead of "-")
    To fix this, type:
    sudo chflags nohidden /
    and provide your admin password. You won't get any output back from the command but the icon should now appear on your desktop, and the hidden flag should go away if you repeat the 'ls -lOd /' command.
    And just in case you missed it above, you've got to be sure Hard disks are turned on in Finder General Preferences under "Show these items on the Desktop"

  • SQL Developer Data Modeler -Editing the Legend

    Hi,
    I have installed SQL DEVELOPER Version- 3.0.04. I am creating the data modeler diagrams(Relational and Logical) using the SQL Data Modeler.I would like to know whether the following features are available in this version or the latest version of SQL DEVELOPER.
    1) Remove the existing legend attributes (Say:Author,Created on,Changed By etc) for both relational and logical diagrams.
    2)Add new attribute to the Legend .(Say: A description for the Barker notation used in ERDs .)

  • Operation cancelled on SQL Developer still running on the DB

    Using either the SQL Developer 2.1.1.64.39 or .64.45 versions when a DML statement (e.g. SELECT, DELETE, etc.) is executed and few seconds after cancelled before it finishs, the SQL Dev IDE shows as the operationwas cancelled, but it still running at the database level.
    If you try to close the SQL Developer to cancell the operation, you will get a "Connection is currenly busy. Try again?", but you can only chose Abort and wait.
    Regards,
    ASCh

    SQL Developer is certainly not just cancelling statements in the user interface - I can cancel a query that normally takes two minutes to run after five seconds and then immediately run a different query in the same connection and get the results (ie the cancelled query is no longer running in the database).
    You are probably seeing the difference between the UI no longer waiting for the statement to complete and the statement actually completing in the database. Especially with DML the database needs to clean up from the cancelled statement, rolling back changes already made by the statement before it was cancelled. Even selects can allocate temporary space for sorting which would need to be cleaned up on cancelling the select.
    I would not expect closing SQL Developer to do anything more to cancel the statement in the database than it has already done - SQL Developer has already told the database to cancel the statement and it is just taking some time for the database clean up after the cancelled statement.

  • Every time I turn my mac off, the desktop background changes. It always returns to the same picture, which was the second or third thing I changed my desktop to after getting my mac.

    Every time I turn my mac off, the desktop background changes. It always returns to the same picture, which was the second or third thing I changed my desktop to after getting my mac. I have background switching unchecked in my preferences, and I have never selected it as an option. Also, when I go to my preferences, it will show the icon of the picture I changed it to, even though the desktop itself has switched back.

    I would start with some basic troubleshooting.

  • Trying to get to app "off" the desktop, clamshell to internal display probl

    I'm only seeing this problem with one application but it's a problem.
    For a while now I've been running in clamshell mode with my external display at a fairly high resolution. I had an application window in the far right hand corner of my screen where I could use it as needed. I shut down and am now working from the internal display which has a lot lower resolution.
    When I invoke almost all the applications, they are smart enough to realize the reduced desktop resolution and open somewhere on the desktop. However there is on application that is trying to position in the same absolute position which means I don't get any access to that application. I know the app is there because if I scroll from one panel to another in Spaces, I see the application window go by.
    Is there any way to "scroll off" the desktop to that position and drag the app window back to the current desktop? The only solution I found was to remember to move the application to some other place on the desktop before I stop using clamshell mode.
    Thanks

    Just hold the app down until the all start to 'wiggle', then drag the app or apps you don't want from your home page to a new page.
    You can't delete it, or any of the standard iPhone apps, but this gets them out of your way.

  • HT201272 Some songs are greyed out while others are black. What does this mean and how can I change it? I'm tired of only 2 or 3 songs from an album repeating while the others disappear off the "Up next".

    Please help....I hate iTunes to begin with. Especially the latest they have come up with. Layout drives me crazy. And now....I find maybe a couple of songs in an album as "black" and the other titles are greyed out. What does this mean? I find it very frustrating as the black titles will repeat but the others seem to just disappear off the "play next" list. How can I fix this? And no...downloading from iCloud hasn't helped any.

    This sounds like you have some unchecked tracks. These are skipped during track to track playback. The track names are slightly greyed out in the album view. You can normally see the check boxes from the Songs view or you can change the status via the rght-click context menu.

    Thanks. I don't know why it wouldn't just go back there when I tried putting it back? I didn't change anything, so I assumed the new "default" was over on the left. Glad it was a simple solution after all.
