How to use the "Immediate Window"

[ClemensSteinbauer]

In the new Versions of UIPath there is this thing called Immediate Window.
As far as I understand, one should use this window to get a better overview of variables and methods, is this correct?
As described here

So far so good, but I dont know, how I can access it. If I want to type into the panel, nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong or is the window still in beta?

Thank you!

Which version of UiPath Studio are you using?

In the latest version (2019.8) I know the forum post said you’re only able to type into the Immediate window when debugging a process:

Addition of the Immediate pane

You can now change variable and argument values in this convenient window (similar to the Watch and Locals panes, it is visible only during debugging).

Hi, thank you for your answer!
That is correct, I am using 19.8 as a Community version.
Whenever I am debugging and I try to type into the Immediate Window, nothing happens
E.g. in the screenshot above, I am in debug mode and it is still not possible to type anything…
Do I have to enable something?

Important to notice; you can’t type directly in Immediate window! Look below for the textbox where you can type in.
