Timothy.....

I can only report that this same kind of debugging works just fine and as expected for me running Rev 2.6.1 on OS X 10.4. I don't recall any problem like the one you're describing in earlier versions of Rev but I may have missed something.

The factthat the debug buttons are "absent and/or dimmed out" suggests to me that further investigation on your part to reveal when they are missing and when they are present but inactive. There may be a clue in there somewhere.

Thanks Dan,

I could have been clearer.

The debug buttons are present at the bottom of the script window whenever I can bet the debugger to work. The corresponding items are also present in the debugger dropdown menu at those times.

When I can't get the debugger to work, no debug buttons appear at the bottom of the script window, and the corresponding menu items are dimmed out in the debug dropdown menu.

In the quoted passage below, I describe when the debugger works for me, and when it doesn't.

I hope this additional information will help you help me. I'd sure like to be able to use the debugger. I'm probably just overlooking some detail that's a little different in Rev.

I've been working around the problem by scattering "answer" commands, with variable values, throughout suspect parts of scripts, and gradually isolating the script problem. It's tedious, but at least it works.

I still can't figure out whether I'm doing something wrong when I try to use the debugger, or if there is something wrong with the debugger.

It works fine on, for example, a simple mouseUp script in a simple button. However, if the button sends a message to a handler in a stack script (for instance), which then sends another message to another handler, nested or not, the debugger won't follow along. "Script debug mode" is definitely turned on. Step Into, etc., are absent and/or dimmed out, typically. Sometimes, I can see the script window open, several windows back, but I can't get to it until the script is done executing. I've tried setting multiple breakpoints in each handler, tried setting breakpoints by script. The script rolls right past them.
