  2. On keyboards without a back-tick key usable without any modifier key (alt, alt-gr), to select multiple columns you have to key-in <Alt>+<9><6>, which would already be pretty bad but actually gets worst on laptops without numerical keypads (a lot of them!): I have to key-in: <Fn>+<NumLock>,<Alt>+<9>,<6> for every column I want to select.

    I own the premium edition, and don't use it because of this...

  3. Add ability to right click on an unknown type and click Resolve similiar to Visual Studio. You have the feature now, but only way to do it is to hover over the little contextual help 'thing' and select the namespace.

  4. When you want place a code that uses Typed Generic List (List<T>), Intellisense does not suggest syntax.. i.e:

    List<string> fields = new List<string>(){"One","Two","Three"};

    When you type List, must to appears List<T> suggestion.

  8. It would be useful to organize a .linq file in multiple classes, exactly as in Visual Studio "Solution Explorer".
    LINQPad is becaming a new light version of Visual Studio for me :).

  10. This great product offers support for so many database types, but the major one lacking is IBM DB2. You can do this through EF, but you will not be able to see the SQL that your linq queries generate.

  15. The word wrapping really makes it a problem to surf the grid. I think your idea of the grid is absolutely excellent. I just wish you used WPF instead of HTML table to render the result set. Also removing columns from grid after the result appeared. Allow us to lock columns when scrolling horizontally. Group columns from result set.

  16. I would like to use a function like Util.LoadPage(string url int width, int height) to load a webpage into an iframe in the result window.

    Currently I'm using File.WriteAllText(fileName, contents, Encoding.Default); and Util.RawHtml to push the iframes into the result window, but for some reason the iframes opens up internet explorer in most cases.

  17. After choosing the Close All option linqpad provides a fresh tab named Query 1, but if the user opens any new tabs the numbering resumes from the last numbered tab.

  19. i.e., similar to Visual Studio. I'm frequently modifying several tabs at the same time. It gets tedious having to click on each in turn and then saving individually.

  20. I have a program that needs to parse a local XML file on the filesystem. It seems LINQPad doesnt like it when I try to add a local file reference as my source. It whines "Expected an absolute, well formed http URL without a query or fragment.
    Parameter name: serviceRoot"
