Services
We have been improving the developer experience for Azure Data Lake developers. Here is what we added in December.
### U-SQL local run enhancements
The DataRoot for a U-SQL local run can now be configured. To set it, click **Menu** \> **Data Lake** \> **Options and Settings**.The experience for local development in Server Explorer is same as with the cluster development experience. **Create** and **Delete** metadata operations now work for databases, assemblies, schemas, and tables.[![Server Explorer Expeirence for Local Run[1]](https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/updates/ServiceUpdates/imported/images-2016-01-Server-Explorer-Expeirence-for-Local-Run1-300x239.png)](https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/updates/ServiceUpdates/imported/images-2016-01-Server-Explorer-Expeirence-for-Local-Run1.png)Sample applications are updated, so you can run the scripts locally without copying the sample data.
### Error message screen update
As shown in the following image, you can see your job errors more clearly:[![Error Message Update](https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/updates/ServiceUpdates/imported/images-2016-01-Error-Message-Update-300x225.png)](https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/updates/ServiceUpdates/imported/images-2016-01-Error-Message-Update.png)
### Expand \* columns
We’ve added editor support for expanding the columns for \*. By hovering your cursor, you’ll see a hint (similar to what C# does with adding namespaces). You can also use the same shortcut as C# (Alt-Shift-F10) to expand columns.[![Expand Columns[1]](https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/updates/ServiceUpdates/imported/images-2016-01-Expand-Columns1-300x194.png)](https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/updates/ServiceUpdates/imported/images-2016-01-Expand-Columns1.png)
