"Up" or "Back" button on Variable Viewer in List/Map view

Got an idea for enhancing PureBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

"Up" or "Back" button on Variable Viewer in List/Map view

Post by Tenaja »

When debugging lists of maps or vice versa, you have to find the list and Display All Items. Then to see what is within the map, you have to do it again. To get back to the original List, you either have to manually delete text within the "Array/List/Map Name:" textbox, or you have to go back to the LinkedList view and reselect the List.

It would be very handy to have either a "back" button that sent you to the previously displayed list contents, or an "up" button that automatically deleted the most deeply nested variable name in the "Array/List/Map Name:" textbox.

Thank you for considering this.

I agree that it's a pain having to reselect again from the base element.

Perhaps also a drop down list (i.e. combobox) for the 'Array/List/Map name' so that you could move back and forth between different recently selected items.

+1 to A "History" like the Search has...another great idea!
