In vscode notebooks, you can add markdown headers to divide your notebook into sections which can be collapsed / folded. Is there a way to execute all cells within such collapsed section, without unfolding it and running all the cells manually one by one?
There is a feature request in the vscode repo describing precisely this and it's marked as completed, so the functionality should be there. However, using the usual Shift+Enter
or Ctrl+Enter
on a markdown header does not run anything in vscode 1.68.1. I also cannot see it mentioned in the docs anywhere and the issue is locked, so one cannot ask there.
This is made possible in Visual Studio Code Version 1.88.1 (March 2024) and also referred to in the docs of VS on https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/datascience/jupyter-notebooks#_run-cells-in-section.
