It would be great to have a mechanism (or API?) to expand and pin every section in a notebook.
As others have pointed out, bl.ocks.org makes it easy to see all the code immediately. On Observable, one has to manually expand and pin each section.
Has there been any discussion of a mechanism to expand/pin everything? Maybe a URL param?
Thanks
There have been a few such requests, e.g. Is there a way to "edit all" or "pin all"? and Via UX prompt: Ctrl-F to find code in someone's notebook
The suggested workaround for now is to open a separate tab/window in safe mode (add /safe to the end of the notebook URL). The notebook will update simultaneously in all open editor instances (provided your internet connection remains stable).
I just wanted to chime in to say that with Broadcast Channels:
You also have a pretty easy way to synchronize local state between the same notebook open in multiple tabs or windows. It makes it even easier to edit a notebook and tweak sliders in one place, while keeping the output consistent and never needing to refresh…
