Expressions window does not display variables

Hi,
I have am using Atmel Studio 6.2 and the only time I get anything in the expressions window is from the default breakpoint that is created and then the only thing that appears in that expressions window is the millis() value.  None of my other variables are in there.
Any advice would be great.

Hi,

The current debugger required you to specify which variables/expressions you want to watch and/or alter.

If you right click the red spot of the demo breakpoint and look at the "When Hit" property you will see that it contains {millis()}

You can mix text and/or expressions in the "when hit". Allowing both a message and any number of expressions.

The documentation provides more detail

http://www.visualmicro.com/page/User-Guide.aspx?doc=Working-With-Breakpoints.htm...

You will need to compile and upload again (F5) after changing the break point properties

I hope this makes sense

Ah okay thank you.  I am guessing there isn't a way to have it include all my variables without listing them is there?
