Variable Viewer not showing full lists

#1 Post by Kinmoku » Fri Apr 29, 2016 8:15 am

Hi all,

I've tried to find an answer to this on the web but had no luck. Does anyone know why my lists in the developer tools variable viewer are displaying like this? I.e. cut short? There should be at least 3 names in the info and found cell, but it's chopped them up and making impossible to follow.

Also, how do you close this window once it's opened without reloading the game? ^^;

It just does, it only shows the beginning and end of a long list. Whenever I need to test the full contents of a list, I just add a line "[listname]" to the code where I need to see what it has, and then remove it once I know it's working right. Printing the list will show the entire contents.

If you are using 'window auto' statement, window is still shown over developer menus, so its return button is hidden behind it. I think this isn't intended behavior.

edit: I posted this as issue on github.
