  Is there a “trace” command?

  Posted by Greg Neumayer on March 14, 2007 at 9:39 pm

  I realize expressions are largely in their infancy, but is there a trace command or something similar that is available during run-time? I’d love to be able to throw a line of code in there like:

  trace varX;

  and be able to see that variable’s value in the info window.
  If not, any word on what kind of features will be incorporated into the next version?

  Thanks,
  Greg.

  p.s. Now that I’m thinking about it, would I be able to take the value of varX and plug it into the text value of a text layer on screen? I guess that would effectively give me some on screen feedback, which could just be hidden when I’m ready to render. Anyone done anything like that?
