in debug mode showing variables value by mouse pointing the variable name in the code.

Hello, A collegue of mine uses wing10. He has the possibility to see variables value by just pointing his mouse on the variable name in the code.

I am not able to have this display. I compared my debugger settings with his settings and did not see any difference. Have you any suggestion?

I thank you in advance/

Is the Debugger > Hover Over Symbols preference enabled? Also if there's a non-empty selection then the Hover Over Selection preference just below that one may be relevant.

I did just see an initial delay in these working in a case I tested, but after a bit (possibly after unfocusing/refocusing window or editor, I am not sure) it's working again.

If this doesn't help please send in a bug report from Wing's Help menu and include the error log with that.

When hovering over a variable make sure you are on the correct stack frame for the variable scope.
