Wish Slow motion (step thru) debug mode

[MikeH]

We have all of the step thru modes, with a slow motion mode we could watch each line being executed without having to keep pressing f8. Like an automated f8 but at a variable speed.

Good idea?

Good idea?

Not so much, because:

1) I still have enough energy to press F8

2) often I press some F9 "while" pressing F8

1) Lucky you

2) Thats a reason to say its a good idea

3) It was a serious suggestion

I don't understand. As you know, you press F8 to execute the current line, F9 to execute the routine called by the current line. If you use an automatic F8 you cannot control when to go into the "external routine" and when not (if press again F8 or F9).

There are times I find it useful to watch my code be executed line by line. Its tedious and slow to keep pressing f8.
