Can i read 'real' inputs from my Nucleo in STM32cubeIDE debug mode?

[deep_rune]

As the title says, I want to look at pin PA9 on my STM32F031K6 nucleo board as I run my program in the STM32cudeIDE debug mode. Will 'real' external inputs be viewable in the watch list? Which register do I have to view? I tried GPIOA->IDR but there seems to be no change

Is GPIOA enabled in RCC->AHBENR ?

Try viewing it in the SFRs view.

is that the IOPAEN bit? yes, it is enabled

GPIOA->IDR is updated during debug mode. You need to ensure it's refreshed appropriately.

Ok sounds good, how do i make sure it's refreshed appropriately?
