Firefox debugger hangs when I close the righthand-side panels, e.g. Watch Expressions

Whilst debugging an Angular 5 app, I have noticed that when I attempt to step on from a breakpoint with the righthand-side panels collapsed, the debugger refuses to continue processing the code.

Opening the rhs panels and attempting to step on (continue) works as expected.

This appears to be a bug in the debugger.

Hi Roland, I do appreciate you taking the time to explain this to me. I must admit that I had begun to feel puzzled by the lack of response, but now I understand.

I will move the questions to the appropriate forum.

Kind regards Victor - OldBasilBear

HI OldBasilBear:

support.mozilla.org is Firefox user support forum; there aren't many experts here who can answer developer support questions.

Please tag your questions about web development 'Firefox' and ask on Stack Overflow.
