Title: Can mouse-over tooltip also show value?
Post by: Napoleon on December 18, 2018, 06:04:18 am

As per title.
Mousing over a variable at the moment only shows me its name and type.  Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be turned on so as to also display the current value of the variable, without having to include it in the watch list?

Yes, there is the option "Evaluate expression under cursor" in the debugger settings. But it is on by default if I remember correctly.

Thanks oBFusCATed.  It's there, but in Ubuntu's package installed 16.01 it is not on by default.
