Description

Summary

It's impossible to scroll up the disassembler to see previous assembly instructions in the PSX debugger. The shortcuts "]", "shift"+"]" don't work and scrolling manually using the bar with the mouse is impossible too.

Repro
  1. Set a breakpoint to update the current PC
  2. Once the breakpoint hits, the very first instruction that you can see is the same as the PC register. Scrolling up is impossible, if you happen to scroll down using "[" or "shift"+"[" you cannot go scroll up back again to the PC instruction.
Host env.
  • BizHawk 2.6.2; Windows 10 Home, AMD processor.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in BizHawk 2.6.2 on Windows by opening the PSX debugger, setting a breakpoint, and trying the disassembler shortcuts and scrollbar after it hits. Trace the debugger's disassembly view from that reproduction; the work is done when previous instructions can be reached and the view can return to the PC instruction.
