Hello, when I execute a script in an event, I would like to display with print() what my variable contains. Where or how can I achieve that I can see my print() in a window? This should help me with debugging and understanding the script (I am using Perspective). for example:

Use `system.perspective.print` and it will show up in the console (both the designer's and the browser's):
