I've become used to seeing the dolphin swimming animation when an operation is running in MySQL Query Browser. I'm currently using v1.2.13 and the animation (at the top right of the window) is not there.

I can't find a setting in the toolbars or the 'Options' to enable/disable it.

Am I missing a setting somewhere? Where has he gone, I miss his cheerful jumping as I wait for our slow database server to respond...

Update: The actual element of the window is the "MySQL Query Browser status icons" according to the Query Browser help. Section 8.3 of the help shows an image of the animation as does the online help:

My answer:

Get your mobile phone, download the .gif Stefanvds commented you on your mobile.

Get some ducktape and tape your mobile at the place the dolphin has to appear!

Now pre-load the .gif and let it play when you start the query!
