Is there a simple way to make two Dump() outputs scroll independ of each others?

Jens_Odborg · March 2023

I have a scrip that contains various dumped data

part 1 contains controls that influence what is dumped in the other part
part 2 contains a larger table
ideally I would want part 2 to be a virtually scrollable table but I will settle for anything that will scroll part 2 separately
e.g. scroll part 2 to the bottom without part 1 scrolling out of view

Not out of the box.

You could implement this as an extension that uses LINQPad's HTML controls. Here is a simple method that dumps content inside a div with a border:

void Main()
{
    object content = "Something you want to dump".Split();
    DumpWithBorder (content);   
}

void DumpWithBorder (object content)
{
    var dc = new DumpContainer (content);
    var div = new LINQPad.Controls.Div (dc);
    div.Styles ["border"] = "black 1px solid";
    div.Dump();
}

You could extend this with multiple DumpContainers and divs, with flexbox styles to achieve the alignment and scrolling that you want.
