Do you intend to implement the “auto refresh” mechanism found in
sqldashboards in qstudio?
It’s super handy when using kdb+ as a number cruncher, and I like
qstudio’s interface a little better personally, as it’s aimed at
developers; plus, you’ve done some really good work on this.
Maybe there’s a way to do this without clicking on the refresh icon
and therefore have the screen flicker?
I just had a look and the screen flickers as when a query gets sent, the display says “query sent…select …”, i.e. whats happening. If I started to change that logic to not show query sent, I’d have a problem, that if a query is hanging the user doesn’t know what is happening. I am reluctant to special case the flickering or to add refresh to qStudio as every new case I add is something I need to support and check before every release. Since this functionality is already available in sqlDashboards it is hard to justify.
Would adding a keyboard shortcut to allow re-sending the last query be any use to you?
I’m thinking F5 as the shortcut key.
Do you know that you can press export and then in sqlDashboards press F11 and get an autorefreshing popup window?
