@CatNofishing : thanks for tagging me in this issue. I’ve installed VS Code Insiders with the latest Python and Jupyter extensions, and now I fail to reproduce issue #6770 and this one. The link to install VS Code Insiders: https://code.visualstudio.com/insiders/

The interface for Jupyter has changed quite a bit (for better imo), removing many of the quality of life complains that I had. Thanks @DonJayamanne and team for the great work!
