Native REPL 'View as scrollable element' not working #25609
Description
Type: Bug
Behaviour
My output is too long and is getting truncated. However, clicking the "view as scrollable element" has no effect. Nothing happens. Also, trying open in a text editor throws this error: "The editor could not be opened due to an unexpected error. Please consult the log for more details.".
Steps to reproduce:
- Using the Native REPL, run this block:
for i in range(100):
print(i)
- Output will be truncated, try to view as scrollable element. Nothing happens.

Paul (@hutch3232) Thanks for the issue.
Can you also see if you can repro this on regular Jupyter notebook with ipykernel?
hutch3232 commentedon Dec 1, 2025
Just tried it by installing the Jupyter extension +
ipykernel. Then I selected my command and clicked "run in interactive window". I was able to click the view as scrollable element and it worked.With those things installed, I tried to repro with the Native REPL and it still occurred.

Hey Anthony Kim (@anthonykim1), this issue might need further attention.
Paul (@hutch3232), you can help us out by closing this issue if the problem no longer exists, or adding more information.
hutch3232 commentedon Jan 6, 2026
FWIW, I am also encountering this in the web version of VS Code within Azure ML Studio.
hutch3232 commentedon Jan 26, 2026
Hi Anthony Kim (@anthonykim1) - are there any additional tests / diagnostics I can run to help solve this one? I encounter it regularly in my day to day so unfortunately it's basically a blocker for me using the Native REPL.

Hi Eleanor Boyd (@eleanorjboyd), I feel like this legitimate issue got lost in the shuffle. Could we get a Milestone attached to it so that it's not lost? Feel like this is important to fix for viability of native REPL.
eleanorjboyd commentedon Feb 17, 2026
Anthony Kim (@anthonykim1) can best determine prioritization since this is REPL related. Thanks

Can we please reopen this issue? Maybe we can remove the info needed tag because I believe I have provided all requested information and I think this is easily reproducible.
