Enhancement to the "Variable viewer" & "Memory Viewer"

Post by Christian Uceda »

Hi, one of the things I like about PB's IDE is the ability to display a
variable's memory content.

So, one of the operations I repeat time and time again is copying the name of a
variable from the variable viewer window, add an @ in the front, then find out what
the length of the variable is using the debug's output, copying it, and pasting the result on
the second range gadget on the Memory viewer window

My suggestion is this: why not add an option to the variable viewer sub menu (the
one that comes with the right mouse button when a var is hilighted) to do
exactly this?

I made a mockup:
