debug function

ilya_baranilya_baran Onshape Employees, Developers, HDM Posts: 1,215
I added a function (with overloads) called debug that you can call as follows:
debug(context, value);
within any feature will print the value to the console in some form and for certain types of value, display it in red while the feature is being edited. See https://demo-c.dev.onshape.com/FsDoc/library.html#module-debug.fs for the types you can and can't use.  Let me know if this helps and how it can be improved.

    The red-display aspect of the debug function wasn't working earlier this afternoon. The query results (i.e. # of things returned) were being printed out, though. We also tried it on the toy example of vector([0,1,0]) that was suggested by @kevin_o_toole_1. Kevin said he would look into it more but I can follow up with screenshots and more if requested.
