Debugging: mouse-over variable should always show variable value

Post by shawnwestin »

Debugging a script:
- in the main script body, mouse-over a variable displays the current value
- step into a function located in a module that was imported by the script
-- mouse-over a variable does not display the current value; only "variable $variableName"

Expected:
During debugging, mouse-over a variable should always show the current value, even inside imported modules.

v3.1.10

To see the variable information you must include the file using the Multi-File Debugging option.

Note: The next service build will not require you to use multi-file debugging. It will display the variable information just by stepping into the file.

For more info on multi-file debugging please refer to the following blog article:

Thanks David!
