Window usability

The following features enhance clarity and usability of frequently accessed IDE windows.

  • Debug — Modify Variable window enhancements

    • Resizable window.

    • Word wrap enabled to read long variable values more conveniently.

  • Search Library/Object Entries window enhancements

    • The Search For field remembers the last searched keyword.

    • For PBTs/Projects, search scope can be limited to the selected PBLs only (users can select or deselect PBLs in the search window).

  • QuickWatch/Watch window enhancements

    • Double-clicking an expression will open the Display Value window.

    • QuickWatch adds a Copy Value button; when inspecting an expression, the Change Value button will show as Display Value.

  • Migrate window improvements

    • Default window size increased by 150% for better overview.

    • Resizable window to view long library lists with ease.

  • Help → About window refinements

    • Added a Copy Info button to copy version details to the clipboard in one click.

  • Expression window enhancements

    • Resizable window to comfortably inspect long expressions. (Specify Filter window is also enhanced to be resizable.)

  • System Tree context menu enhancements

    • (Workspace format) For PB object nodes in the System Tree and Library Painter, Copy Name context menu is added to easily copy the object name. (This is already supported in the solution format in the previous version)

    • On PBT nodes, Optimize context menu is added so that all of the PBLs within that PBT can be optimized in one click (PBAutoBuild and ORCA do NOT support this feature).
