  1. I've checked in my queries in TFS, it would be nice if LinqPad could checkout queries when i start editing them.

  4. If I have open 4 tabs, then close LinqPad and restart it again, it would be nice to have the tab's open as it was before. Same behavior as notepad++

  5. When dumping images to the output window, sometimes it would be nice to specify the maximum display size for the image, so that a large image doesn't fill up the entire results window causing much scrolling to get to anything below.

  6. Sometimes rather than viewing IL I want to see the exact assembly code the JIT produces on my computer. LINQPad is a perfect place for such a playground.

  7. We use Linqpad allot at work and it would be great if we could add a network share to the My Queries are, or even add a shortcut in Windows Explorer in the My Queries directory and have it load files from there.

  8. It would be great if you keep an history the last x (10,20,...) of the results (especially the html, but also SQL would be nice), including the time it took, and the date-time of the execution.

    It could be very useful when comparing the results (both output data and time it took).

    Many thanks!

  10. In Sublime Text and Visual Studio Code you can select multiple other occurrences of the current selection with CTRL-D (see the first animation in the main slideshow on https://www.sublimetext.com/).

    I'm so used to this being available that it now almost feels like a chore to have to do a 'normal' find/replace when I'm editing in LINQPad (I know: First World problem...).

    Anyway, it would be amazing if LINQPad gained this capability, as it really speeds things up when hacking about with code.

  13. Just another export option or another mode/button near Output, Grid 1, λ, SQL, IL
    Would be really nice to have this possibility when I would need to copy some records from one DB to another via Remote Desktop connection

  15. 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.

  16. I am so used to the 'save on compile' option in Visual Studio, that I can't get into the habit of saving in Linqpad until I have finished or closing linqpad (and since Linqpad is so useful it never gets closed).

    This has resulted in me losing work several times.

    Would it be hard to add an option to save files to the temporary folder when a query is run.
    Don't need there is a need to attempt to recover the files, as I can go looking for them.

    Thanks

  17. In the Add Connection pane, one should be able to add a connection which allows you to browse to an Xml File (or any file that has an Xml File structure even) and thereby be able to use Linq to Xml to query from that Xml File.

  18. I don't mean a fully support as it's hard to do. Just Commit and Merge or something like that. I don't mind on configure the first time the repositorioes, but it would be nice too. Maybe something like the Team Explorer (Idk if you can take advantage of that). I use multiples PCs and I do that manually from the console (easier to forget to do it).

  20. One for server and the other for database. With many connections having only a single dropdown makes the list quite long and hard to navigate.
