You can click a frame to make it the current frame. The Variables panel always reflects the state

of the current frame. Note that this does not move the instruction pointer. The script remains

suspended at the most recent frame, even if that frame is not the current frame.

Source code

You can click any script at the left to view it in the source editor at the top right. An instruction

pointer in the left margin marks the current line.

The code is read-only, but clicking to the left of a line of code adds a breakpoint to it (except

when a line has no debuggable content, for example if it only contains a declaration or

comment). Note that breakpoints are discarded when the dialog is closed.

Hovering over a variable in the code shows the value of that variable. If the variable is nested,

like fields in record.fields, you can click on the variable, its parent, child elements and/or

siblings (if any) to see their value.

The value is read-only, but you can select it and copy it with Ctrl+C.

Find code

To search for a text in all of the scripts, starting with the currently selected script, press Ctrl+F

and start typing the text. While the Find field is visible, you can either use the arrow buttons next

to it, or press Enter / Shift+Enter to go to the next or previous match, respectively.

When the Find field is not visible, you can press F3 / Shift+F3 to go to the next or previous

code that matches your last search text.

Tip

When you click on an identifier (such as a variable name) in a script, the overview ruler at

the right highlights all other occurrences of that identifier straightaway.

Variables

At the bottom right the Script Debugger shows a hierarchical overview of all variables in the

scope chain and their state. This information is always relative to the current stack frame, which

is the one that's selected on the left.

The overview includes the special entry "(this)", which represents the JavaScript "this" object.

If the current script is not a Control Script, the overview also includes the special entry "
