Using the Source view – PB Docs 2021

Using the Source view

The Source view displays the full text of a script. As you run
or step through the application, the Source view is updated to show
the current script with a yellow arrow indicating the next statement
to be executed.

Multiple Source views

You can open more than one source view. If there are multiple
source views open, only the first one opened is updated to show the
current script when the context of an application changes.

Copying from the Source
view

When text is selected in the Source view, you can select Copy
from the pop-up menu in the Source view to copy the string to the
clipboard. You can then paste the string into another dialog box to
search for the string, insert a watch, or add a conditional
breakpoint.

Changing the Source
view

From the pop-up menu, you can navigate backward and forward
through the scripts that have been opened so far, open ancestor and
dependent scripts, and go to a specific line in the current script.
There are several other ways to change the script from other views
or from the menu bar.

To change the script displayed in a Source view

  • Do one of the following:

    • Drag the name of a script to the Source view from the
      Call Stack, Source Browser, or Source History views

    • Select a line and then select Open Source from the
      pop-up menu in the Breakpoints, Source Browser, or Source
      History views

    • Select Edit>Select Script from the menu bar

To find a specified string in the Source view

  1. Select Find from the pop-up menu, or select Edit>Find
    from the menu bar.

    The Find Text dialog box opens.

  2. Type the string in the Find box and check the search
    options you want.
