I noticed that lots of expression evaluation popups datatips severely slow down going in and out of debugging, so I'd like to delete most of them (for that I need to find them first, is there a button for that?) or if it's not an option, delete all of them at once.

If you're asking about the immediate window, you have to right click in it and click Clear.

These are called "DataTips" and you can find options to manipulate them in the Debug menu.

Go to Menu > Debug and there you will find Clear All DataTips, Export DataTips, Import DataTips etc... When you're actively debugging you can find an extra option to clear DataTips per file.

Hope this helps!

  • In debug mode, when you go to Break, hover above an expression and press pin button to pin it to a place in code, it stays there and tries to evaluate that expression every time you go in and out of debug mode. – user1306322 Aug 03 '12 at 14:54
  • You can unpin these. I find it helpful to have these expressions added into the Watch. I don't think there is a way to prevent re-evaluation in this case. – Stas Aug 03 '12 at 15:26
  • To unpin them I must find them first. That's what this question is about. – user1306322 Aug 03 '12 at 15:48

    Ah, these are called DataTips :-) So go to top the menu Debug -> Clear All DataTips. This will unpin them all. Sorry i really didn't understand what you asked :-) You can also clear them in specific file, there will be option in the Debug menu. Have fun! – Stas Aug 03 '12 at 16:00
