I'd like to be able to examine the data in the watch window more
easily.

1. Allow the search to access properties when an object is not
expanded. This would be particularly useful for viewing an array of
objects where a particular property of value is of interest.

2. Allow objects to be exported as JSON. Sometimes it is useful to be
able to compare the current value with a previous value, or to compare
two different objects. To that end saving an object JSON to the
clipboard would allow the user to save it for later comparison.

Apologies if this is a duplicate I've tried posting previously and not
seen the item listed for dicussion.

I like both suggestions!

Please search through our issue list for an existing report and if you don't see anything,
create two new reports:

That's described in issue 1545. To be able to search inside the Watch panel will require issue 3575.


2. Allow objects to be exported as JSON. Sometimes it is useful to be
able to compare the current value with a previous value, or to compare
two different objects. To that end saving an object JSON to the
clipboard would allow the user to save it for later comparison.
 This is covered in issue 2560.
