Ah! I have realised since posting what is happening. My bad, I added it as an eval \
not a watch. 

Maybe the header "Recent" could be made more explicit, recent what? In the context of \
dynamically updated locals and watches nothing suggests that these are either fixed \
and no longer relate the varialbes they include.

Perhaps "static evaluations" would be a clearer indication of what is shown.


since I've got a line open could I suggest two other enhancements here? 

Context menu for a watch could include "modify watch" where the text would be copied \
to text entry for modification. (especially useful since the watch can not be \
selected as text for copy, only highlighted).

similarly the expressions listed could have an context entry "refresh" that would \
cause them to be re-evaluated.

Both pretty trivial to code and nice added functionality.

regards.
