That would be nice if debugger show not just decimal integer but hexadecimal value of a variable under cursor. Now i need to put the variable into 'memory' tab and give the address of it ( like '&source' ) to see the hexadecimal value of it.

    The expression tooltip window is just for quick preview.

    To view variables in hexadecimal form you can add them to the watches windows and then right click -> properties -> hexadecimal.

    I know it is not the best ui, but this is the only thing we have at the moment.

    That should help if i say: 'I love C::B much more that other IDEs I used in the past from 1987' ??? :DDD

    Watches aren't my friends when checking math expressions and drop variable into memory tab is faster, easier and cooler than watches... :D Expression preview should be much more coooool! ... please... ;)

    Patches welcome.

    In fact you can select an expression -> right click on it -> add watch
