Debugging Compound Templates used as Template Building Blocks

You can debug Compound Templates in several ways.

If the Template Building Block that fails is itself a Compound Template, you can examine its Template Building Blocks by selecting the Compound Template in Template Builders and doing one of the following:

  • Double-clicking the Compound Template
  • Right-clicking the Compound Template and selecting Step Into from the context menu
  • Selecting Debug > Step Into from the main menu
  • Pressing F11

The Compound Template view now adds a new tabs containing the name of the Compound Template and switches to it, showing the Template Building Blocks contained in this Compound Template. You can debug these Template Building Blocks just like in the main Compound Template.

To return to the view of the main Compound Template, do one of the following:

  • Click the left-most tab in Compound Template view.
  • Right-click the Compound Template and select Step Out from the context menu.
  • Select Debug > Step Out from the main menu.
  • Press Shift+F11.

To close the view of the embedded Compound Template, select its tab and click the close button ('X') next to the tabs.
