Description Karen Butzke CLA 2012-08-01 13:23:13 EDT 
Reported on stackoverflow. We need to make the JPA Details view named query text area larger and have it expand to fill space. 4 lines is not enough for anything beyond a simple query.
Comment 1 Arturs Licis CLA 2012-08-01 14:09:12 EDT 
I would suggest adding property in preferences, something like 'Number of lines for query edit box' with a default value somewhat more than 4 lines.
Comment 2 Pascal Filion CLA 2012-10-03 08:52:39 EDT 
Fix checked into trunk (revision 575902e).

The new IDE preference setting is located under Java Persistence->JPA->JPQL Editing section: Size of JPQL text editing area in lines.

Also, I changed the default number of lines to 5.
