Description eadams 2002-04-07 19:35:28 UTC 
The user's task when using Add Watch is  to see the contents
of a variable.  When  a watch is added, the newly watched variable
should be shown to the user.  Therefore,

   a) If the Debugger window is not visible, then
       it should become visible.
 
   b) If the watch list is long enough to have a vertical
       scroll bar, then the watch window should be scrolled
       to disply the watch.

In summary the watched variable should be made
visible and the user should be able to predict 
where this will be.
