When debugging starts, the custom debug hover takes precendence over the regular editor hover. In order to make it possible for users to also look at the editor debug hover we have introduced a gesture: while the user holds alt key during debugging we will show the regular editor hover.
Start debugging some app, for example our vscode smoketest express, hit a breakpoint and verify:

  • Debug hover works as before, you can hover over variables
  • Debug hover's dimensions are now more dynamic. It is more wider and the height is larger and easier to use in general
  • Holding down alt key swtiches to the editor hover and the debug hover is not shown
  • Once you release the alt key the debug hover works as before

Ideas on how to make the alt toggle more discoverable are welcome!
