Description jrojcek 2006-11-28 09:02:23 UTC 
Finding	
Sub-expression node wasn't visible right after the first expression step. Participants expected 
"something" to happen after the first expression step so that they get a hint what the feature is good 
for and how it should be used.

Severity	
Majority of participants encountered this problem.

Recommendation	
Make the sub-expression node visible right after the first step.
Maybe it should have a subnode saying something like "Beginning of expression - no results". The 
subnode should be also visible.

Well, we can consider that, although we do not have anything to display under
that node yet.

The information about expression stepping in Local Variables is improved:
