Hi,

One of my frustrations with the IDE have been when debugging record or class 
variables. The data is truncated to 255 characters and it's very difficult to 
find the appropriate variable within the structure. I have now uploaded a patch 
(http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=21990) that adds a treeview where each 
variable within the structure is shown. You can easily scroll down to find the 
desired variable and nothing gets truncated anymore.

As described in the report, I can imaging though that this patch will be 
rejected as it would be even better to merge both functionalities by using a 
propertygrid. However this was a quick hack for a project of mine and it works 
excellent. Therefore I would not see why not to add it for now.

The patch however brings up the discussion what would be the final solution for 
this problem. Is a propertygrid appropriate? Is there a native propertygrid for 
lazarus available? What do others think?



As for the aim...

I would like watches that have structure, to have a "[+]" sign, and be able to expand in the grid.
