Debugging 2sxc - enter advanced mode with control-click

10/20/2015

2sxc 8 offers an advanced mode for users who know what they are doing. All dialogs with a pi-symbol (bottom right, homage to The Net) offer this mode. To enter the mode, just control-click anywhere in the dialog. You should see a toster in the top right informing you of the advanced mode, and new buttons and comments will appear.

Note that advanced features are only available in this mode, for example

Change the scope of the types shown (press the round button, enter "System")
Change the scope of a content-type
show debug-info (the entire object JSON) when editing
...and much more

So if you don't know why you should do this, that's fine. For users with advanced needs - enjoy :).
