    The Debugger Menu
|  Prev  Next  | 
A fly-out menu is available by moving the mouse pointer to the right edge of the page. The menu contains the commands which control the debugging process.
     
  
This panel contains the basic debugging controls. The captions of the links in the Portal panel indicate their current setting. When, for example, the Trace setting is disabled, the appropriate link displays the caption “Enable trace”; otherwise, the caption is set to “Disable Tracing”.
Note: In Debug mode by default Caching is not used. In order to enable caching renderings in Debug mode you should “Disable Rendering Info”.
