Hi,

Hello Mark, can you please adjust the code of my simple example to
demonstrate it to me?
Of course I read the help file of Script Debugger, but unfortunately
after trying several things I seem to be unable to get it to work.
I also uncommented --local y, but that makes no difference. I still
only see the value of x in the side pane of Script Debugger.

All you have to do is uncomment the 'local' statement to make the declaration of y explicit. Here's a video that demonstrates how to view the local variable in your sample script:

Hello, how can I see the value of y in the variables pane of Script
Debugger when I run this simple examplescript in debug mode:

set x to 3

beeping(x)

on beeping(x)
	--local y
	set y to 5
	beep x
	delay 2
	beep y
end beeping

Script Debugger requires that local variables be declared explicitly using AppleScript's 'local' statement in order for them to appear in the Variables browser and in the Expressions browser. More information is presented in Script Debugger's online help. Just search for 'local' to get more information.

Cheers
