Description

I have an eval that prints out example inferred sequences in markdown table format. These sequences can be quite long (up to 1k rows per table), but the ability to examine the output at every step is really useful. However, after a model has been training for a while, the Text tab becomes almost impossible to load because it shows all historical text outputs, not just the most recent one.

I think it would be really useful if the Text tab had sliders like the image tab so I could usually see just the most recent output, but have the ability to scroll into the past if desired.

Research direction

Start in the Text tab and compare its behavior with the Images tab's slider controls. Trace how historical text outputs are loaded and rendered, then verify that the Text tab defaults to the latest output while still allowing navigation through prior outputs without making long tables impossible to load.
