Hi Ashesh,

For some reason the image isn't displaying here - but what about using
a wxCheckListBox?

we have now good number of boolean
parameters in the properties.

And, now we're lack of space.
We can't go all the time to increase the size of the dialog.
We need some mechanism to saw these kind of parameters to utilize the space
properly.

No, I don't think it is worth it at the moment. You could put the
checkboxes in a 2 x 2 grid and see if that looks OK. If not, just
shrink the comment box a little. I don't think we're at crisis point
yet, and when we do get there we can always split the properties
across 2 pages (I think we already do that for one object type - I
forget which atm).

I already started working with wxCheckListBox.

But, then realized, we may need to disable some parameters for particular
version of the Postgresql. I couldn't find anything like this in the
documents. :(
We may need to inherit that control and our own dray feature. I don't think,
it is
worth put that much efforts.

What do you say?

No, I don't think it is worth it at the moment. You could put the
