More exactly, I had never enough time to make it again. And as I don't use 
it... Maybe for Gambas 3.1 ?

Yes, because I had a problem with automatic row height resizing and 
performances. But I'm not 100% sure than preventing rows to be resized is 
related to that.

But normally, if the current selected row should automatically fits its 
contents.

I agree, the Gambas 3 database manager may not be as practical as the Gambas 2 
one in some places.

I plan (later) to allow to save sql requests and they will appear inside the 
the table list. Or something like that. So that we can deal with many SQL 
requests at the same time easily.
