PyCharm 2023.3 Help

Frames

The Frames pane of the Threads&Variables tab enables you to gain access to the list of threads of your application.

Frames pane

To examine a thread, select it from the list on top of the pane. The status and type of a thread is indicated by a special icon and a textual note next to the thread's name. For each thread, you can view the stack frame, examine frames, navigate between frames, and automatically jump to a frame's source code in the editor.

To examine the values stored in a frame, use the Variables pane of the Debug tool window.

Thread Icons

Icons near each thread indicate the status of the thread relative to the current debugging session.
