Klemens Lichter | Variable unknown if cursor not over first character on Tue, 30 Dec 2003 11:05:51 +0100 Hi if I place the cursor while debugging code over a variable in my code I can see a tooltip like myVar = <value> But while this seems to run with vars from type object there are problems if the var is from type array or numeric or character: only if I place the cursor over the first character of the variables name I get correct information, otherwise there is either "unknown function" or "expected return with error" or something else. Is this behaviour intended to be? I think it should be better in next release and show correct informations whereever I place the cursor over the variable in the code. Klemens | |

I've found that the debugger sometimes requires some careful positioning of the cursor but only for short variable names, such as "a" or "i". I can't remember having seen this for more complex names yet. The behaviour you describe is not intended, of course.
