Question

Watchpoint feature seems to be missing. cannot find anything on it.

The gui seems to not have support for viewing adding or changing watchpoints for what i can find.
 
I am able to use watchpoints using the debug console.
">watch address"
however it would be nice if that would also be visualized just like breakpoints.

Hi @wh1,

It is not supported yet for the moment.
We have an internal ticket to propose this feature.
As soon as it is done and delivered, I will let you know in this thread.

Kind Regards,
/Flo
