Visual Studio 2010: Visual Debugger Drill down into collection pain


When I am debugging a collection visually in Visual Studio 2010 I have to drill down quite a few levels before I get to the actual items in the collection. The image attached below is of an ObservableCollection<Fundsource> and you can see the hoops I need to go through to look at the items. It didn't used to be like this and I'm wondering if I have changed some setting to see all the intermediates. (Or maybe the implementation has changed between VS2005 and now and I'm just remembering the good ol' days).

Solution

  • You need to uncheck this option: Tools | Options | Debugging | General | Show raw structure of objects in variables window.
