Okay, by reading the code, I figured out, that you need to enable the checkbox on the query level for the collection pre-request script to take effect.

This seems like a bug to me, because I enable a checkbox on the query level, where the editor is empty to run a script on the collection level?

If this is by intention, I think it would be good to mention this in the docs very prominently.

Fair point. It also seems reasonable to me that the pre-request script enabled on the collection should not depend on the query level check, but I can also see the current behavior as expected 🤔
