  1. I have two different solutions but with the same assembly name but different projects. One is a upgrade of the other. When i add another assembly if it is of the same name, it overwrites one that is already existent, even if their paths in explorer is different.

  2. I really love the "Roslyn Syntax Tree" visualizer, and use it a lot to inspect how the code looks like a tree.

    However, I also do a lot with Roslyn, analyzing code, and writing code fixers. I'd really love it when I have a SyntaxNode, to be able to dump that to the Tree visualizer, and see it's tree there.

  3. every time after CTRL-E,D formatting, moving current line to the top of the screen flickers the screen. I think it would be good to simply leave the screen as it is

  4. I make many query then allow end user to use making report.
    I would like to hide script box to end user.
    End user just select script and run to see result.

    Also, I need to Load Win Form or WPF to replace same position of script box that let user select condition for query.

  5. Allow us to configure the endpoint for Instant Share so we can create our own workflows for script sharing. Instant Share to a local folder, SMB share or Web API URL.

  6. When we create a Linq expression or whatnot, the SQL generated aliases our tables to "t0", "t1" - etc. There are many times it would be nice if the alias either maintained the variable we used in our query (table=> table.ColName) or allowed us to define aliases in some other, metadata file.

    Thanks!

  8. In support of Tabs, it would be useful to have a treeview of queries, not saved ones but current ones, the current tab version is successful only to a point. I regularly have about 30 tabs up in a sequence of tests I run.
    Also the ability to name the queries in Tab view (but not save) would be a powerful thing.

  10. Simulate more Win Explorer-like behavior in the My Queries pane with respect to folder shortcuts. If I add a shortcut to another folder location in the folder designated for my queries... I can click that folder shortcut to navigate to the folder containing to those queries. This would probably also necessitate some navigation buttons for the pane (back/forward).

    Now.. you may ask why not just store all my queries under a single folder. I am sure there are many reasons why one might wish to store their queries in various locations... but my main reason is that I keep some…

  11. If pulling a nuget package into a query, Linqpad seems to use -DependencyVersion Lowest. This works fine, if the package dependencies are maintained properly, but often it fails.

    If the public interface of the referenced package changes, but the package dependencies are not adjusted after an update, the package cannot be loaded in Linqpad.

    An example is the Splat dependency of the ReactuveUi package.

    It would be great to be able to set the DependencyVersion or update the referenced dlls.

  13. When I try to render some HTML that I get back from an FtpWebRequest call, dumping it to Util.RawHtml() gets me back a serif font output... the HTML actually has <pre> tagged content which should be monospaced, if I'm correct about how that gets rendered. When I run the same request via IE, I get exactly what I want.

  14. Licensing page currently indicates "three activations for virtual machines running VMWare, MS Virtual PC, Hyper-V, Azure Roles, or Azure VMs".

    Would it be possible to add Parallels Desktop for Mac to this list? I'm a single user with a Premium license and I already use my desktop licenses on my three PCs. Nothing left to use on my Mac Win10 VM under Parallels. :(

    Thanks!

  15. When I connect to a server which has a lot of databases (Azure in my case), it would be nice if the list of databases could be sorted alphanumerically in the connection window.

    It's possible this option exists, but I have yet to find it!

  16. Recently, I needed to combine lots of single row inserts SQL statements into multi-row insert statements, which involved removing the semi-colon at the end of each single insert, a commit, and the following insert statement up to the actual values of the insert, which spanned 5 text lines in the script I was writing. With a multiline find-replace tool this would be easy. With the find-replace tool only being able to operate on one line at a time this is much harder.

  17. The help menu item doesn't appear to give any help on how to use the program's find and replace tool. What are the wild-cards and regular expression features that the tool supports. Does it support beginning-line and ending anchors, multiline search patterns, etc.

  19. When searching for nugets from standard edition, a dialog is displayed saying you can only search for packages that contain linqpad samples.

    That dialog shows an error icon, not a warning icon, which seems like the wrong semantics (it's a warning of limited functionality, not an error that something doesn't work). It'd be good if the text started with 'Warning:' also.

    I know this looks like splitting hairs, but this just genuinely confused an end-user, who assumed my instructions were wrong.
