  1. I wanted to post a serious performance issue (all the time, even with the beta) when running linqpad in parallels on mac. Resizing window hangs the machine from 1 to 3 seconds. Anyway, I couldnt post this feedback or create an issue on Linqpad forum as that requires me to login using OpenID, which I don't use.

  2. A way to easily set environmental variables. New wave of cloud apps/frameworks seem to leverage this as a way of injecting values into the app.

  3. I was making a GitHub issue for some problematic production data and it was a pain to take the copied Linqpad query results and finagle it into the markdown table format.
    I'd like the Copy for Markdown feature to work for query results.

  4. If a Schema Metadata contais properties with a unsupported characfters like "third-nationality" , then linqpad is unable to continue and display the error "The schema is not supported" . It should be nice to bypass these fields and continue. Notice that the schema , a Successfactors was correct until , they added 3 proeperties. I admit that it s on SAP side to update the schema , but I dont think they will do it .

  5. Linqpad needs a feature to export and import settings. I'm about to reinstall windows and I really don't want to setup all of the connections, etc. that I've created in LinqPad after re-installing it.

  6. The LINQPad output window allows tables to be collapsed/expanded. Especially in nested tables this is very useful. Having everything expanded makes it difficult to read the tables.

    The HTML export should have the same expand/collapse feature.

    Both the export from LINQPad GUI as well as LPRun html should accept two different dump levels. One for the actual data and one for the default expand level when the html file is loaded into browser.

  7. Right within LINQPad, enable 1. Azure login; 2. Connect/browse Azure Queues and DocumentDB; and 3. Author Azure Function CSX scripts, test, publish, and repeat.

  9. Would be cool to write a linpad script and then have a menu option to publish as Azure WebJob, preferably with a scheduling mechanism.

  10. When dumping an IEnumerable<T> source, LINQPad also displays the count of items or count of initial items if the number of items exceeds a defined limit. It would be nice to a count (updated live while subscribed) when IObservable<T> sources are dumped.

  11. If I never use a certain language (e.g. C#, F# or Visual Basic) I should be able to set an option that will exclude options based on that language from the language dropdown.

  12. Maybe lprun.exe can be more easily adapted to run cross-platform than the full GUI app. It would be fantastic to just be able to run scripts via Mono.

  13. "Open in Excel" also copies column names from the output, but "Open selected cells" does not.
    It can be very handy if the latter could also copy column names, independent of what has been selected (cell, cells, columns or rows). Of course only column names of cells to copy have to be included.
    Add as an option (because it may not be wanted every time).

  15. So I have data executed and in the results window I would like to click on a single row or column and get the query that I would use to get to that position and use it in c# code.

    Would be good for quickly generating a query for C# code.

    I have used this in XMLspy to copy an xpath value to clipboard by just pointing at an XML element

  17. In my workplace there are 4 environments with 4 servers each, with 10 databases each. When I need to change environments i have a lot of servers to scroll to, even though I only ever use 8 of the databases in each of the 4 environments. It's be really nice if I could mark a server/database as a favorite, and have it be at the top of the list.
