\G like vertical output in MySQL Workbench for show engine innodb status

Once you execute show engine innodb status;

  • float the mouse over the Status field
  • right click for a popup menu
  • click 'Open Value in Viewer'
  • When the viewer opens up, you can
    • Scroll through the Viewer
    • Click Save Button in the lower left corner to save to a Text File

Or you can just press Ctrl+Alt+Enter or choose 'Query → 'Execute Current Statement (Vertical output)'


On MySQL Workbench 6 you can use Query -> Execute Current Statement (Vertical Text Output) like I explained in MySQL Workbench Vertical Output (Portuguese). You can also use keyboard shortcut Alt+Cmd+Enter (on Mac).
