1. %config Completer.use_jedi = False is no longer working, so no Jupyter autocompletion is enabled and no autocompletion for column names when using dot notation. https://github.com/microsoft/pylance-release/issues/851 https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-jupyter/issues/1300

2. The code entering field is fixed at the bottom, so the autocompletion blocks your code completely sometimes.

3. unnecessary checking

Other than in this issue, I don’t think we have a separate bug for it. Looks like there’s a newline problem in the concatenation of the cells as we pass them to pylance.

@rchiodo 3. unnecessary checking is really annoying, and you have no way to stop it once it’s somehow triggered. It underlines my code even if I enter something like df.head(). Could you guys at least add a toggle or something, I can disable this checking in the interactive window for good?

You’d have to disable intellisense altogether (it’s a bug). If you switch to ‘jedi’ as the language server for python code, those squiggles won’t show up.
