I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  2. Copy and Paste to Visual Studio

    In a C# app, my code is often:
    DataClassesDataContext db = new DataClassesDataContext();

    Then the Linq code is, for example
    var results = from answer in db.Answers
    where answer.Score > 20
    select answer

    Basically, this cannot be copied and pasted to / from LinqPad as the tables are in the DataContext. db. breaks linqPad / VS when it is copied back in.

    Would be nice to be able to define the name of the DataContext globally (default), or for each query.

  3. auto graph

    Small request. I love the visualisation feature "Show Graph" and it would be nice to have the option to automatically graph all columns in a resultset.

  4. allow F1 or Alt-F1 to bring up the table definition/schema

    allow F1 or Alt-F1 to bring up the table definition/schema, like in SSMS-> alt F1 brings up tons of information about the highlighted table. it would be nice to have a mechanism for jumping straight to the table info via keyboard shortcut if the table name is highlighted.

  5. allow opendatasource in LINQ

    openDataSource and openRowSet don't seem to work in LINQPad under LINQ instead of SQL. I use these on a number of queries, and would hate to have to go back to SQL everytime I needed data from another server on the one I'm on.

  8. Allow .linq files to use env. vars to set ref. file paths.

    I use link pad on two machines, each with slightly different directory structures. It would be nice if my .linq file could include referenced DLLs using notation like %HOME%...\Library.dll.

  9. Flag read-only properties in output

    I really would like to see for each property whether it's a readonly or a writable property. Maybe you could give the gray background of the headings some red touch for RO ones?
