Debugger icon
If the debugger is active, an icon
will appear on the iconbar as well as the normal MakeKISS icon.
The extra icon has its own menu, with the following options:
- Info : This displays looks like a normal program information window, but it actually
shows the version number of the FKISS debugger, rather than the parent program. This may be altered
in the future to give some statistics about the FKISS script for the current doll.
- Defer redraw : Normally, MakeKISS does not perform screen redraws caused by FKISS events
until the current event terminates (this is an efficiency measure). However, when the debugger is active, any
redraws generated are processed immediately, to avoid the image displayed being out-of-date. If this option
is ticked, redraws are performed as if the debugger is not running (ie when the event stack is empty). It is provided for completeness, but is probably not worth using.
- Quit : Selecting this menu item will exit the debugger until the next time a doll is loaded or you change from Play mode to Build mode.
If you have closed the main debugger window, clicking on the debugger icon will reopen it.
