This might seem like a verrryyyy minor thing, but I was wondering if it would be possible to make it so the results for the SQL queries didn't have new lines. Or at least some kind of setting for a "compact" mode?

The results have so much white space, and it takes a lot more effort to glance over and scroll through them. It might not matter if someone is only running a few queries. But if you're working with it all day, it feels like it adds up and I'm viewing much less information.

Here is an example of what it looks like in ACS runscript vs VSCode for I. As you can see, in ACS you can see more lines of data at once.

In ACS you can adjust the columns on the fly, and it will start cutting off information, which is often what I want.

Yes, perhaps there is some work we can do to disable word wrapping in the result set.

In the VS Code settings for Db2 for i, have you tried enabling this setting? I believe it's disabled by default. You may or may not have to restart VS Code if you change this setting (I can't remember.)

That is exactly what I am looking for, thank you! This makes it much better.

If the columns could just be cut off and the widths be adjustable, that would also make dealing with long strings like street addresses much nicer.
