Hi.  
In the newer versions of Polyscope it is possible to describe variables in more detail, for example to describe the function of the variable (see Figure 1). This is really a great function.  
Unfortunately, when you select the variable, the description is not displayed.  
For the future it would be nice if the description of the variable is displayed when selecting the variable (see image 2). This would enable faster overview and understanding in large programs.

That is a good idea. 🙂  
For your information, the description was mainly added for operators to have a description of relevant variables in the Run (Ausführen) tab.

Ich finde das ist eine sehr Gute und Sinnvolle Idee! Gerade große Programme stelle ich mir dadurch übersichtlicher vor. Ich würde mich sehr über eine Umsetzung dieser Idee freuen.

Beste Grüße

Why doesn’t Universal Robots provide feedback on ideas?  
Disappointed ☹
