Allow for minimap scrolling in jupyter notebooks
Allow for minimap scrolling in jupyter notebooks

Hello! i thought it was very obnoxious trying to scroll through my notebooks in vs code only to discover there is no feature to enable the minimap in jupyter notebooks. Googling around I found a thread (#11526) where a lot of people wanted this, but no response from microsoft even though it has hundreds of upvotes. So I thought this would be the end of it.

Then I saw this guy commenting on the thread (after over 100 replies) that he has a fix for this and has made an issue regarding the needed framework for this to work, with extensive suggestions as to how to go about it. The missing minimap in notebook is not a bug like people in the thread think, but rather that the correct API is missing, which he wants to fix.

If you too are interested in a minimap for vs code jupyter files, go upvote his issue! There only needs 20 (there are 15 now) for this to be put into the backlog. Its issue #311289

I am not the creator of these threads, just want to have a minimap in notebook view.. I hope this doesnt get taken down, I dont know how else to spread this to people that clearly want this feature but havent seen his issue. It lazy of microsoft to not implement this when the original thread has 500 people upvoting it.
