MySQL Workbench charset

Question

Does there exist any way to change the MySQL Workbench charset? My schema uses UTF-8 and when I view the table data (saved as UTF-8) or add data manually, it appears with ch

Answer 1

I think OP was asking about charset that Workbench uses in its editor and how to setup Workbench to use UTF-8 in GUI - not how to setup default charset used for database table in Workbench. At the moment in Workbench one can set database table charset but regardless of it Workbench will in it's GUI represent data using Latin1 charset!!! Also inserting data into UTF-8 tables through Workbench will result with wrong chars in database. I don't know either how to make Workbench deal with UTF-8 in its GUI.
