Note

The bug was fixed in PyCharm 2024.2.3.

Fixing Non-Working Plugin

PyCharm 2024.2.1 has a bug which makes the plugin unusable. The plugin isn't able to fetch the required data from the underlying Python process and stays empty.

Workaround

As the plugin only loads the required data in the form of strings, you can easily configure a custom type renderer as a temporary workaround until the behavior is fixed in PyCharm. These steps have only to be done once to configure such a renderer. Afterward the plugin works again as expected.

Steps

  • start a debug process
  • evaluate an empty string ""
  • right-click at the evaluated result and select Customize Data View from the context menu
  • the Python Type Renderers page of Settings with a new renderer opens. Configure it shown in the screenshot:
