How to collapse class' methods by default?

thales_campolim — Thu, 27 Mar 2025 17:11:01 GMT

I have built a class which is already over 2.5k code lines.
It is extremelly painfull have to scroll a lot once you need something you know it on the bottom.

I have looked after a solution to set the collapse as a default but could not find.

Has anyone found any solution for this?

Hi @thales_campolim
Just to clarify, are you referring to working in Databricks, or is this in another IDE or code editor?

It seems like, Databricks notebooks currently do not offer a built in way to collapse all cells.

But you can manually collapse cells, you click on the little triangle on the left of a cell, it collapses that block.

Also, you can split the large class into smaller modules and save them as .py files. Then import them into your notebook using %run or through Databricks Repos if you are working with Git.
