Debug Window

I'm using Inquisit 5 on a Mac (couldn't see a forum for this version so posted here). The manual says you can open the debugger window by pressing Ctrl+D while the script is running. When I do this, the script pauses and the cursor appears but nothing else happens - no new window appears, no values are shown. The only thing I can do is press Esc which then causes the script to continue. How do I view all the values for debugging once the script is paused?

This sounds like it may be a bug. Can you tell me (a) the exact OSX (e.g. 10.9.1) version you are running, (b) provide a screenshot of what's displayed when pressing CTRL+D (" the cursor appears...") and (c) test / confirm that the result is the same with all scripts, not just a particular one. Thanks!

P. S.: The Inquisit 5 forum is located at https://www.millisecond.com/forums/Forum101.aspx and it should be accessible from the main forum page https://www.millisecond.com/forums/ .

Thanks for getting back to me
OSX El Capital 11.10.3
There's nothing to take a screenshot of - the experiment just pauses wherever it is and the cursor appears.
Just tried it with a script from the Inquisit web library and it does the same thing so it's not specific to the one I was working on.

Thank you for the additional technical details and confirmation regarding other scripts. I have filed this as a bug in our tracking system so this gets fixed in an upcoming Inquisit 5 Lab release.
