Hello,

The debugger is actually the script debugger, and it's available in your script editor screen.

Chart expressions are not debugged, as they are in an object, out of the scripting process.

The script always runs sequentially from the first line of the first tab (left) to the last line on the last tab (right)

Hope that helps.

Hello Mansi,

I was wondering the same thing on point 2.

One way I found to test/check the output of a chart or object expression is to set that expression as the input for a text object. That way you can quickly see what output you get from that expression.

If it is a large expression you can break it into parts and check which part is failing using the method mentioned above.
