Hello Sam,

I think something with good potential for v5 would be to strengthen the options for debugger.

FIrst, of course, I have a zillion varibles so I have to scroll down to generally see the meat of the execution but guess what? Every statement refreshes the window so I lose my place where I'm looking at the variable and have to rescroll - yuck. Impossible to do in a loop.

Second, I would really like to set a value of a variable at a breakpoint - that would be extremely useful to me - like right now useful.

Third, and I don't know how you are going to do this, sometimes I have a need to focus away from the debugger window and in my target window but guess what? The automation loses focus when it is expecting it (of course). Anyway to enhance that in debug mode?

I have other ideas but they are still in the ideation stage..

Cheers!

I vote for these two also !!!  ....The First one is the most frustrating !

 

In addition, it would be valuable, at times, to be able to sort the variables listed in the bottom window of the debugger, by clicking on the header column above the variable column.  Currently the variables apppear to be listed in order of defintion withinin the job which is convenient.  However, sometimes it would be helpful to sort them when searching for variables.

 

This one is very much needed...
