Hello, I just bought BlitzMax and I'm using it on OS10.2.8. Everything works fine except the debugger.
When I write the following code I found on this forum:

DebugStop()
For i = 1 To 1000000
Print i
Next

Everything works fine but with the following

Graphics 800,600,32
DebugStop()
For i = 1 To 1000000
Print i
Next

The debugger does not appear. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

The debugger is an osx window associated with the IDE .... when you do Graphics 800,600,30 you are opening a full screen window, which will cover the desktop, and since the debugger window is probably on the desktop you can't see it? Or no? Is that too simple?

He's right. Debug in windowed mode. Change it 800,600,0

would be interesting to have a debugger you can see while in full screen

would it be too hard to create a console window in your max app and make it show debug info?

now, that would be interesting :)

Graphics 800,600,0 works great. Thanks for the help.
