collapse blocks to definitions
hi, I work with MS SQL Managemenet System and a lot of *.sql files for updating databases
to my specific file can have a lot of lines of code (up to 1000 lines) and navigation and reading becomes tragic - I always manually collapse (press on [-] next to block name) all blocks like CREATE PROCEDURE, CREATE FUNCTION
I really love your SQL Document Outline feature
so you can handle another feature 'Collapse all blocks to definition' and simplify the life of a lot of db coders
Will be glad to be among your clients
Thank you and good luck, guys
Best regards,

Good idea. I guess the difficulty I have with the outline is it doesn't give a snippet of the code or allow a "section comment", so all i have is a bunch of selects or begin/end in the outline, which isn't terribly descriptive.

this excactly what I look for:
I work much with large procedures and in there I have a lot of nested BEGIN END and IF END IF statements. It's sometimes not easy to keep the overview. A helpful feature would be to fade out or fade in code groups like BEGIN END and/or IF END IF. In some situation you already have this but only on the highest level (stored procedures first BEGIN). -

so that I could look at it from time to time and read comments
