DBeaver Can't access non-default database
I'm using DBeaver 3.8.0 and trying to setup general connection to my local PostgreSQL database.
To view all the databases i have, I check the "Show non-default databases" checkbox. And when I try to access Schemas of one of my databases - I'm getting the error
org.jkiss.dbeaver.DBException: Can't access non-default database

Try to set your database active which you choose to open the schema:

I think it would be nice to have a configuration or setting where one can select "Set Active on click" OR "Set Active on double-click". This would be a nice to-have - similar to what happens in HeidiSQL

@CodeBurner yeah. This is obnoxious. It's quite an obvious oversight.
