Questions tagged [debuggervisualizer]

Visualizers are components of the IDE debugger user interface that displays a variable or object in a manner that is appropriate to its data type.

Visualizers are components of the IDE debugger user interface. A visualizer creates a dialog box or another interface to display a variable or object in a manner that is appropriate to its data type. For example, an HTML visualizer interprets an HTML string and displays the result as it would appear in a browser window; a bitmap visualizer interprets a bitmap structure and displays the graphic it represents.
