Annoying popup panels during debug

Post by **StupidSexyFlanders** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:03 am

Not sure why this is happening but, just recently, there are two panels that popup (and then immediately close) whenever I debug my code (i.e. hit F5). They complete obscure the code panel and are a real annoyance. They are there and gone so fast, it's hard to tell what they say...but I think one of them is called 'Watch' and the other is, I think, called 'Debug'. The latter is really weird because I already have a debug window open.Since this started up just a few days ago, I think I may have enabled something by mistake?

I am not sure how they obscure the code and immediately vanish at the same time, but ok

Start PrimalScript and load some script
Set a breakpoint and start debugging
Select View -> Debug Windows
Enable "Call Stack", "Variables" and "Watch".
Dock these panels where you want them. Side by side, tabbed, whatever.
Stop Debugging.
The panels should hide
Start debugging again and the panels should show at their preset positions.

Yeah, I tried that already:.But as soon as I run my script, the code
window becomes largely obscured behind the debug window: And all three
debug windows I enabled become disabled:mbaker2011-12-09 10:51:37

Well, yeah, they are switched off again once the debugger stops since they have no use without the debugger running.
It's not a popup. You somehow dragged the debug console and docked it by itself.
Just grab it and dock it back down with the other Debug windows and it becomes a tab again.
