doubles not showing theirs min/max

Somewhere below I have read a post that "floats" are not showing their min/max.
It seems the "doubles" are not showing theirs, either.

It would be useful to have a web page somewhere to list all "known limitations", very briefly (one liners) so people can look them up. Then cross them out as you release updated versions ("fixed in...").

How do you _stop_ debugging? If I have a bp that pauses execution, so I am now waiting at some line of code, but I want to recompile and download a new code, hitting F5 just continues current execution. Should we add a menu item, "Stop debugging" or a simple, "Force download new code" button? Currently, the behavior is not obvious.

Hi,

Strings that have decimal markers (doubles, floats) etc will be supported soon along with more documentation.

The debugger is driven by the serial window so closing the window or unticking connect will stop the debug.

You can also press F5 twice quickly, the first time it will continue the second it will prompt to re-compile and upload.

In the meantime you can show decimals by making them large whole numbers...

{(long)myDouble*100}

Not very pretty but works  Smiley
