ERROR Message Displays

[Turgut Guneysu]

Hi John,

Noticed that when an error occurs in the program, the displayed error message sometimes gets overridden by other displays in the program and makes it extremely hard to troubleshoot.

Program with error:

‌

Program with the same error and a simultaneous display of time:

‌

Is it possible:

1. If any ERROR, to stop all executions and display the error at error location, until one clicks on the program area.
2. or if stopping is not possible, then keep the error display on by the block with error.
3. or turn some error indicator on with color RED or something like that on the menu line, or even on the problem block itself. Meaning change the color of the block with error or the color of its running HALO ?

Thx.

I agree, this could be improved. The easiest thing in the short term would be to stop all scripts when an error occurs. Longer term, I’d like to highlight the block that got the error, but that’s a bit tricky since that block might be in a function that isn’t currently shown.
