disable highlighting query after execution

[match-gabeflores]

Dbeaver seems to (sometimes?) highlight (select) the query after the query has complete. is there a way to disable this?

i'll often have a query running for a few seconds and start typing away somewhere down in the editor. when the execution finishes, it interrupts my typing to highlight the query. sometimes, this causes me to delete the sql query!

not sure if that makes sense.

On dbeaver 22.2.4. using redshift

i think it's because i highlight the query first. but then i start typing elsewhere. dbeaver re-highlights the original query.

Steps:

• highlight query
• use hotkey to execute statement
• start typing elsewhere
• when query finishes, it highlights the original query. (if you're in the middle of typing, it overwrites the highlighted query! have to use ctrl-z to undo)

Ok, I can reproduce it. You can create a bug ticket for this with all the additional info.
