  2. The recent file list under the File menu seems to max out at 9. I would like the config option to increase this number (e.g. 20) similar to what can be done for the recent files list in Visual Studio under Options|Environment|General|items to show in recently used lists.

  3. Display the name of the region that the current line is in if it exists. My 'My Extensions' is getting pretty large now and I'm relying on regions a fair bit. Even so it's quite difficult to know which region I'm currently typing in so a status bar message or right click would be very handy.

  7. 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

  9. "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).

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. It's kinda getting into the way for samples. Not a very big deal though, but if there's an option to grey out the Dump() function, the main statement would be a little bit more clear.

    • Move the LINQPad specific XML configuration in the *.linq (and add *.cs too, if not possible already) files inside comment, so the same source is usable e.g. in VS.
    • ...and permit using such *.cs (or other X# language) files just like *.linq files.
    • Refresh changed file automagically (if not changed in LINQPad, or verify if file already changed in LINQPad)

    This would allow quite fluent cross-usage of code between various development tools and LINQPad. And shoud not be very hard to implement?

  16. When closing LINQPad with unsaved changes in open queries a dialog is displayed asking "Save changes to the following queries?".

    There may be several queries open that the user does wish to save along with one or more they do not wish to save. Currently one must cancel the dialog, then close each unwanted query and dismiss its prompt to save, before requesting to close once again and confirming that you wish to save the listed queries.

    It would be more convenient if the list on the prompt dialog was selectable, either as a checked list or a multi-select list,…

  17. Keep past results available across multiple queries, like TOAD and TOAD for SQL Server. It makes comparing results easy, and is very useful when debugging a query.

    Allowing for a user-set 1-99 (default to 5 or 10) results tabs to be visible would be wonderful. I sometimes use TOAD just to get the result history, and then translate the SQL to Linq, and test the results in LinqPad.

    This is my #1 desire for LinqPad, and should be easy to implement.

  18. First of all. Thanks for this great tool. It made (at least in my opinion) a much better devloper out of me regarding how to write/test & improve linq-queries. Now, this is a suggestion I have:

    As I am always using the results-window outside of the main-window (on my second screen), it would be really nice and helpful if LINQPad would store exactly this setting.
    Then, when starting LINQPad, it should move the position of the window to the same position as it was left when closing LINQPad the last time.
