Description saurav sarkar CLA 2011-06-22 05:26:40 EDT 
Hi,

I just thought this particular use case can be useful.
I watned to copy the state of a variable when i was debugging.

I thought it would be great if the whole state/content (it should include all the attribute values also) can be copied into clipboard or can be exported.I am still not sure if this is being supported or is there some better way to achieve the same .

Please close if this idea does not look valid.

cheers,
Saurav

This already worked.  Select the variables you are interested in and hit Ctrl-C or Right Click > Copy Variables.  The variables along with their current values will be copied to the clipboard.
