CodeWarrior Screenshot Tutorial: Saving Your IDE Workspace Views
When debugging complex embedded systems, your NXP CodeWarrior workspace quickly fills with essential data. You might have the Registers view, custom Memory expressions, Disassembly, and standard source code windows arranged perfectly to track down a elusive bug. If your IDE crashes, or if you need to share your exact diagnostic setup with a teammate, losing this layout is a massive frustration.
While taking a literal screenshot (like pressing Print Screen) preserves a static image, CodeWarrior allows you to actually save, export, and recreate your live workspace views. This tutorial covers how to capture your IDE layout so you never lose your debugging context. Capture Your Visual Reference (The Quick Way)
Before tweaking your settings, capture a standard screenshot for documentation or support tickets.
Windows: Press Alt + Print Screen to copy only the active CodeWarrior window to your clipboard, then paste it into your documentation.
macOS / Linux: Use Shift + Command + 4 (macOS) or the Import command (Linux) to select the precise IDE boundary. Save the Live Workspace Layout
CodeWarrior is built on the Eclipse platform, meaning your window arrangements are tied to “Perspectives.” To save your current arrangement of views:
Arrange Your Views: Dock your Variables, Breakpoints, Registers, and Console views exactly where you want them.
