Feature request: Filter on types #7

Open karigunnarsson opened 6 years ago

karigunnarsson commented 6 years ago

Coming from R i'm loving anything that makes me feel more like i'm in RStudio, so i'm loving the variable explorer. But one thing i notice is that the bigger my workspace the less i use it, since it tends to get pretty cluttered with modules and functions which aren't terribly exciting.

I think what would help this a lot is a simple option to filter on the "Type" column, preferably a permanent setting rather than a dynamic filter. For me at least the only interesting variables are the ones containing data, such as arrays, dataframes, strings etc. If i could just remove, function, type and module from the list it'd already be much more user friendly.

I vote for him. The feature would be great as well.

This feature (and #9, which is related) shouldn't be too bad to do. However, based on my current schedule I won't get to coding this until late August. I encourage anyone to submit PRs if they're interested in having this functionality earlier!
