If I understand correctly, the side panels should be resizable indenpendently from each other (per main panel). If so, I think this wouldn't annoy anyone and I'd say no to an additional option for this, but just change it. > > Script Tab Variable Popups > > Problem : It's a nice feature when you've paused execution and you > > hover over a variable and its value pops up.
