8.8.9 new color for unsaved query in tab
Newest 8.x version introduced something I hope can be configured (or rolled back).
1. Change something (don't save)
2. Run the query
on top of the normal unsaved sign o -> (oNAME_OF_QUERY) now we have the text in the tab in yellow (dark theme) instead of white.
Is this configurable?

System theme:
Could you provide screenshot, please?

Without this feature, it's not easy to tell whether a running query has been modified, because the running symbol takes the place of the modified dot.
The same feature has existed for a while in the light theme - modified files are shown in blue.
-
This is what it looks like on Dark theme. I don't mind it personally so I don't have a problem with it.
-
Yeah, exactly as CragVenz with the dark theme. That's what I mean.
It is easy you have the (o) symbol at the end of it - color is not needed. -
The confusing part is that the yellow color signals that something is running - not that something has changed.
for the change we have just the o symbol
-
What version are you running? That looks like the previous 8.7.x version.
-
Yes - that's how I think it should still work in 8.8.9. Use the yellow color for marking a tab with a "running" query, not a changed query for which there is already the (o) symbol.
In 8.8.9:
Both color and symbol is yellow, so a bit redundant.
Also yellow is a STRONG color visually that signifies something important, a not-saved file happens often - no need to get yellow for something that is happening ALL THE TIME.

The difficulty then is that when it's running, there's no indication that the script has been modified.
Having both glyphs at the same time is a bit ugly and causes a layout change whenever the query starts and finishes.
-
Would you prefer if it was toned down?
-
Sorry for coming a little late. I really think the o-symbol is enough and there should be no color, like VSCode default e.g.
The running icon (play/pause) with color is great.
If it must be colored then some orange maybe:

Let me know what you think of LINQPad 9 - the styling here has been refreshed.
