Input delay when editing large files
Great software, use it every day. Couldn't do without. I may be on the edge of what's reasonable in usage, but when editing files of 500+ lines some input delay occurs. CPU usage is 100%+ on a Intel i9 when typing. Input delay disappears when setting "Show completion list after typing a letter" to false.

add party mode
It's a button that kind of makes the whole thing do a party, you know? Balloons, lively atmosphere, and the like.... Thanks

Save As shortcut
Assign shortcut Ctrl+Shift+S to Save As
Microsoft, as a general implementation, does not assign a shortcut key to Save As functionality. But much of the rest of the development/utility community does. The ability to rename a tab is a useful workaround, but I'd prefer consistency with other applications especially in cases where I'm modifying an existing query (that I haven't cloned).

Give option to connect to multiple databases from the same server
When we add database connections to a query, it is always a specific database connection. Instead, if there is an option to add the connection at the server level to the query and the user can query from different databases that are existing on the same server, then that would be amazing. Right now, I have to do this by connecting to various databases from different query windows, each one linking to a specific database, which is not user-friendly and error-prone.

Add Navigate to previous location (Ctrl--) to the Edit|Advanced menu
I can never remember (nor quickly find) the LINQPad/VS shortcut for returning to the previous location after using F12. Adding it to the Edit|Advanced menu under the F12 related keys would be very helpful.

Add Export of Results Pane to Util as a method
LinqPad results window has export options for Word, Excel and HTML. It would be helpful to invoke these from the LinqPad query, maybe as a method in the Util function.
Example:
Util.ExportResults(string ExportFileName, ExportType TypeOfExport);
Util.ExportResults(@"c:\MyExport.html", ExportType.HTML);7 votes -
Add option to remove trailing whitespace on save
It would be great if all trailing whitespace in the query document is removed when saving the file. LINQPad seems to add lots of erroneous whitespace. Eg. if you're working in an indented code block and hit enter multiple times, the empty lines all have erroneous whitespace.

Allow for negative numbers in the 'Show Graph' feature
The 'Show Graph' feature is brilliant quickly comparing the relative size of numbers, but it does not work well for negative numbers. It would be great if negative numbers showed extending to the left (and perhaps in red) with positive numbers showing to the right of some imaginary zero-point line. (Thanks for a great product!)

Activation code
Please make it easy to find and copy the existing activation code from within Linqpad itself. I was going to examine upgrading to version 6 today but can't as I don't have this code to hand. And I couldn't locate it in Linqpad :(
This feature would probably get a few more impulse purchases before Xmas! :)

Reset window layout
Would like to request a "Reset Window Layout" option. Very helpful when comparing between multiple tabs to have them all of the same height/width etc.

Add back the App.config dialog
I use LINQPad to work with libraries based on previous versions of .NET, and it would be helpful to be able to edit the App.config like I could in LINQPad 5.

Add menu option to reopen LinqPad as admin
I made a script to modify a registry key, and I realized I needed to run it as an admin for the script to work. I needed to save the script first, so I could close LinqPad, and reopen it as an admin. Some way to elevate the current query, or reopen LinqPad as admin without needing to save would be cool.

Allow direct export of results as PDF
I don't often want or need to save the output from a LinqPad script, but when I do I almost invariably need to end up with a PDF that will be sent to someone else. The current export options (Excel, Word, HTML) get the job done but require an additional step. It would be really nice if LinqPad could export directly to PDF

Allow column exclude / filter (Temporal Tables)
When working with temporal tables there is no way to use LinqPad to alter / insert entites because it attempts to set values on AsRowStart columns -- and so the insert/updates will fail.
It would be nice to be able to exclude a column from consideration in a context / entity as this would solve this problem.

Custom Aggregates in Dump override
Possibility to add custom aggregates like sum, average over custom types for the Dump method.
Currently you get a sum/average underneath columns containing int's etc. (except if they are formatted through ToDump).
It would be nice to do something similar as ToDump for custom types, and or types like TimeSpans, Dates, etc.

Provide way to set resiliency options
With SQL Azure in general and now specifically with the new serverless option it would be great to be able to enable the various ADO.NET and EF Core resiliency options so that you do not get a timeout on startup or when there is a transient failure. Both are just settings for number of times to retry, the retry interval, etc.
For EF Core with SQL you can use something like
optionsBuilder.UseSqlServer(cstr,
sqlServerOptionsAction: sqlOptions =>
{
sqlOptions.EnableRetryOnFailure(
maxRetryCount: 18,
maxRetryDelay: TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5),
errorNumbersToAdd: null);
})In ADO.NET you can do it in the connection string parameters
ConnectRetryCount=18;ConnectRetryInterval=5;Timeout=90
Thank you

Add previous C# versions in samples for "What's New in C# X"
In the Samples tab, add previous C# version samples. For example:
What's New in C# 7.3, 7.2, 7.1
What's New in C# 6.0
etc...Many times, I reference your samples to help 'jog my memory' for syntax and when/where C# language features were introduced.

Favorites queries tab and search
It would be useful to have a tab before "My queries" with the preferred queries to get a link to start them quickly, also visible in the search query, to simply find the correct script.
We have thousands of queries in 8 years that we use LINQPad.

Cannot see views in LINQPad vesion 6, only tables
I just upgraded to LINQPad 6, and I cannot see the views from my database, only the tables.
I am connecting to a MySQL database.
I was able to see the views in LINQPad 5 just before the upgrade.
Thanks.1 vote
