You can either show the "Object Viewer" tool through the menu path Execution --> Tools --> Object Viewer

or pop-up the object viewer dialog by clicking the button ( ) located in the tool bar of the objects tool and watch tool.

This command opens an object viewer dialog when an object is dropped onto the button.

• Object dump: dump a text representation of the value
• String display: string representation
• XML display: xml viewer
• Object browse: browse the object, as you would do in the Object or watch tools
• Object internal: display some internal data elements such as:
  • class_name
  • type_name
  • dynamic_type
  • field_count
  • deep_physicial_size
  • physical_size

Note: The "XML display" is available for objects eligible for "String display", and whose string representation has XML content. The viewer displays XML in a tree-enabled grid.
