Environment not shared by Quarto editor and console?

[chrishklee]

I haven't used positron in about 2 months, but something seems to have changed in that time where the console and the editor are no longer sharing the same environment. Is this an intentional change or some bug on my end?

If this was an intentional change, is there a way to restore the previous behavior (shared environment)?

This feature (the ability to manipulate my session variables in real time directly on the console) was literally the only reason I was using positron over other IDEs.

It sounds like you may be thinking about Quarto inline output, and specifically the support for a console that is connected to your Quarto session:

We haven't changed anything about that in the last month or so, but that is opt in behavior so perhaps something changed with your installation or settings?

If that's not what you're looking for, please share more details about what you are seeing compared to what you are expecting.
