Quickwatch Command (3 of 3)
Use the Quickwatch command to quickly add, modify or expand
variables or expressions in the Watch window.
 
  ■ Use <Zoom> to expand or contract an array or structure.
    A '+' is displayed next to a contracted variable and
    a '-' next to an expanded variable.
 
  ■ Use <Evaluate> to see the value of an expression.
 
  ■ To add a watch value, type a variable name or watch
    expression in the Expression: text box. Then select
    <Add Watch>.
 
  ■ To modify the value of a variable, type the new value
    in the Value text box and select <Modify Value>.
A watch expression may be any valid C expression.
EXAMPLES:
  count
  count + 1
  count + 1 == 5
 
For relational expressions, the Watch window shows 0 if the
expression is false and 1 if the expression is true:
  count + 1 == 5 : 0    ── False
  count + 1 == 5 : 1    ── True
 
The Quickwatch command displays variables in the default
C format for their type.
Use <Modify Value> to change the value of a variable.
 
Expression:░░░░░░░░ ── Type a variable or expression here
                        THEN
Value: ░░░░░░░░░░░░ ── Type the new value here
 
List:                   OR
░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ── Choose a watch expression from
░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░     this list and type a new value
░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░     in the Expression: text box
 
To change the value of a structure or array, modify the
individual fields or elements. You cannot change an entire
array or structure at once.
