Frame States
When you are running an application and using the OpenROAD Debugger, the behavior of the application may differ slightly from the behavior when the Debugger is not in use.
For example, in a running application, any changes to a frame that occur in an event block (data changes or visual property changes) are visible after the event block completes. However, when you use the Debugger to step through the code, you see such changes when the actual statement that causes the change completes. Therefore, you might see the frame in a state that you would not see in a free-running application.
