I would love to be able to add a reference to a LINQPad script similar to how you would add a project reference in Visual Studio. This would be like the My Extensions script, but rather than global, it would be a selective inclusion.

Main() would not be called, but any types/methods would be available in the referencing script.

Seems like it would be handy to have a way to search the datagrid contents.

You can use ctrl-f in the standard results but that doesn't appear to work when viewing datagrids.

In Chart() method, we can plot additional Y series by:

chart.AddYSeries(x => x.Value2, LINQPad.Util.SeriesType.Line, "Value 2");

and a legend is shown with specified name ("Value 2" in above code).

It's cool feature, but I couldn't find the way to specify the name for "default" Y series.

So I think "name" parameter may be needed in Chart() method.

SQL 2016 supports built-in function STRING_SPLIT().
This function corresponds to .net [String].Split(char).
Please enable mapping from C# to SQL when calling .Split() on a string.

Would be nice to be able to use JsonObject properties to query data inside LINQPad.

e.g. with the signature "T Dump<T>(Func<T, object> whatToDump)"

This can then be used to dump a particular part of an object: "person.Dump(p => p.Name)", but the original value is still the result.

machine learning and artificial intelligence.

Exit insert mode when autocomplete pop-up is visible. Currently, escape just exits the pop-up and not insert mode.

It would be nice to have comment slashes (//) prepended to the first non-whitespace character of a line rather than the beginning of the line.

Example

Current functionality - Before using the comment shortcut:
void Main()
{
\s\s\s\sConsole.WriteLine();
}

Current functionality - After using the comment shortcut:
void Main()
{
//\s\s\s\sConsole.WriteLine();
}

Desired functionality - After using the comment shortcut:
void Main()
{
\s\s\s\s//Console.WriteLine();
}

* Sorry for the awkward 'regex'-like values representing a space. This wasn't posting with all the spaces.

Our Dev and QA servers have at least a hundred databases on each server instance. It would be great if there was a "Quick Select" for databases similar to the "Navigate to Query" ctrl+, window. I know there is the drop down at the top, but it is not a searchable drop down.

DumpContainer is cool, but it's not convenient to new a DumpContainer() and set the Content.
Please support Dump(string containerName).

Like this:

public static class DumpExtensions
{
public static Dictionary<string, DumpContainer> dict = new Dictionary<string, LINQPad.DumpContainer> { };

public static T Dump<T>(this T obj, string description, string containerName)
{
if (!dict.ContainsKey(containerName))
{
dict[containerName] = new DumpContainer().Dump();
}
dict[containerName].Content = obj;
return obj;
}
}

// Then I can simplely print 1-100 in 5 containers

void Main()
{
DumpExtensions.dict.Clear();
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
i.Dump("", (i%5).ToString());
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);
}
}

> Any of the following key combinations will exit insert mode: Escape, Shift+Enter, Ctrl+Enter. Typing 'kj' quickly will also exit insert mode if you enable that option in Preferences.

Ctrl+[ is a common alternative to escape in vim. A lot of vim users do not use the Esc key directly as it means taking your hand of the home row. Specially if you have Caps lock mapped to Ctrl. It would be nice to have it as an option.

Currently in the beta charting works really nice, except it is not possible to add an extra XY set, only a Y set can be added using .AddYSeries.

Thank you.

I'd like to be able to configure the transparency of the CTRL key when the Intellisense window pops up.

The problem I have is, I use Emacs key bindings and CTRL+N and CTRL+P interfere with my UP/DOWN navigation scrolling through the Intellisense list. It's annoying trying to move up and down and the pop up keeps fading to transparent.

I'd like to put some script to public git repo, but I don't want to share connection data which is stored in *.linq files. Please add option to skip saving this. I fully accept a must to choose DB after each script opening.

Code folding works already for properties and methods but not for comments which use the three slash prefix such as:
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the name
/// </summary>
public string Name { get; set; }
