Closing Separate Results Window / maximizing pane automatically
I think the X on the Results Window when it is Undocked should close the Results Window instead of docking it - there is a dock button immediately below the X in the title bar if that is what is desired. Alternatively, perhaps it should also match the docked Results pane and have a close button to the right of the Dock button.
It would also be nice if there was a way to automatically Collapse the Editor (or maximize the results pane) when a query is executed.
BTW, thanks for LINQPad and your responsiveness. It is still one of the best products I have ever used.

Ctrl+Rtoggles results pane.Ctrl+Shift+Rtoggles editor. -
Yes, I know. I don't want to have to hit them every time I edit and run.
-
It would be nice to have some kind of directive, kind of
#LINQPad hide_on_run+, to hide code window when running. I have an Avalonia application for which I don't need to see the code at all. -
@i2van FYI, I previously suggested (5 years ago!) putting
System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait("^+R");at the start of code execution to hide the code window. -
Unfortunately it toggles results/editor.
-
Perhaps some utility functions could be added to
Linqpad.Utilto show, hide and get the status (shown, hidden, undocked) of the Editor & Results windows or panes. -
I've added the following methods to the Util class in 8.8.4:
Util.HideEditor(); Util.HideResults();
-
This works well, except when you are using
Console.ReadLine();callingUtil.HideEditor();even before theReadLinecauses the focus to be wrong. Shouldn't the focus be put on the input bar at the time of theReadLinecall? -
This should be fixed in 8.8.5.
-
Working for me.
Thanks!

Console.ReadLine();works, but the focus is still wrong if you useUtil.ReadLine();
