PrintLn
Prints out the string or value with a new-line in the debug window 
- STRING Output
Text to display 
- NONE Return


Detailed description

This is a debug diagnostic call to allow text to easily be outputted during events to trace what a program is doing.

During an event, breakpoints can not be used. Calls like this help establish if a flowcharts logic is sound.

Unlike Print, the PrintLn will automatically add a new-line after the text is printed. This is useful for more compact flowcharts.


Examples

Calling in a calculation

  • Add to a calculation icon:
    ::Debug.PrintLn("output")
