CHANGES FOR VERSION 6.04.0 (as compared to 6.03.0)

•     AFL Editor & Watch Window: the contents of matrices is now displayed in value tooltips and watch window
•     Debugger state (watch variables/expressions and breakpoint locations) is now saved between AFL editor sessions (formula-wise so each formula has its own “debug state”). The data are saved in XML file with .dbg extension
•     Debugger: MDI mode implemented. In 6.0.3 AFL Editor did not support ‘MDI mode’ (even crashed), now this functionality is back. Also Watch window is available in MDI mode and debugger is working in MDI mode too.
•     Preferences: added new page with Debugger settings.
•     Preferences: ‘Editor’ tab moved so ‘AFL’, ‘Editor’, and ‘Debugger’ tabs are next to each other, also ‘Alerts’ and ‘Currencies’ tabs moved before ‘Miscellaneous’
•     Watch window: a new tab “Arrays” shows exploration-like array output for detailed examination of array contents (first 20 arrays from watch window are reported)
•     Watch window: implemented array item change highlighting and auto-scrolling so first changed item is always visible in the ‘Arrays’ tab
•     Watch window: implemented expression evaluator, so you can not only display variables, but also expressions involving variables such as (high+low)/2 or individual array elements such as myvariable[ i ] where i is dynamic loop counter
•     Watch window: implemented value change highlighting: changed values are displayed with light yellow background, additionally numeric (scalar) values are displayed in green when they increased or red if they are decreased
•     Watch window: pressing DELETE key while editing variable name caused deletion of variable from watch. Fixed.
•     Watch window: variables can now be drag-dropped from AFL editor window
