SHIFT ×2 SEARCH

Double-Shift MySQL table search (IDEA-style)

The same muscle memory as IntelliJ: open search, type a table name, press Enter—no hunting through hundreds of nodes. Download VloamDb and try it on your own schema.

How to search MySQL tables without the sidebar tree

You already know the table name. The client should not make you click ten times to get there—especially on schemas with hundreds of tables.

  • Works from anywhere in the workspace
  • Space-token match with highlight
  • Jump straight into the data grid
  • Remap the shortcut in Settings if you want

When large schemas make tree navigation slow

Star or group the databases you open every morning, then Double-Shift when you need a table inside them. Search replaces scroll-and-expand as the default habit.

Try Double-Shift on your own MySQL

Download the macOS or Windows build, sign in for the 15-day trial, connect to staging, and Double-Shift a table you open every day. If the tree was the bottleneck, you will feel the difference in one morning.
