In large programs the variable window can become quite cluttered, which makes
watching selected variables difficult.
Therefore, you can customize the selection of displayed variables.
All
All variables used by the current procedure are displayed at once.
Global variables (see section “Scope of Variables (local or global)”) are marked with
.
Auto
The variables of the current and the previous operator call
are displayed. This is useful when single-stepping through the program,
because only the variables relevant to the current context are displayed.
User
A user-defined selection of variables is displayed. If the tab User is active, variables can be added from a
list in the context menu. In the other tabs variables are added by
selecting them first and clicking Add to User Tab in the context menu.
It is also possible to select a variable name in the program window and drag
it to the variable window.
The corresponding variable will then be added to the watched variables, and
the tab User will be activated.
Global
All global variables (see section “Scope of Variables (local or global)”) of the current program are displayed.
This includes global variables in external procedures, even if they are not
used in the current program.
The context menu of the global variables includes an additional entry
Declared in.
It lists the names and line numbers of the procedures that declare (and thus
use) the corresponding global variable.
Click an entry to jump to the corresponding location in the program
window.
