Description shaulgo 2008-11-10 17:29:04 UTC 
Debug mode => "Local variables" or "Watches" Tab
When you click on the extended display of the Value column in one of those tabs the window that opens is Modal. This
doesn't allow the viewing of more then one variable at a time.
For example I have Xml in String format and in Element format. I want to view both variables at the same time so I can
compare. 
But right now it opens in a Modal window.
Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2009-02-09 16:18:10 UTC 
Is there any reason why is the property editor opened in a modal window?
