How can I view the element contents of an array in debug mode in Rider?
My Rider is version 2023.3.3. This happens not only in std::vector, but also in TArray, and I can't debug the specific elements.
std::vector<std::vector<int>> heightMap(width, std::vector<int>(height));
In debug mode, I can only get the following view, I can't see the specific internal elements.
Please tell me what to do. Thank you very much.

Thank you for contacting Rider support. It seems the .natvis renderers are not loaded.
First of all, I suggest checking if this option enabled: Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Debugger | Data Views | C/C++ | Variables | Enable NatVis renderers for LLDB.
It is is enabled, verify if you have stl.natvis file under C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/{release}/Common7/Packages/Debugger/Visualizers.
If file present and the mentioned settings is enabled, please share Rider logs:
- Enable the Debugger trace scenario in Help | Diagnostic Tools | Choose Trace Scenarios;
- Restart Rider and reproduce the issue;
- Collect logs via Help | Collect Logs and Diagnostic Data;
- Disable the trace scenario enabled;
- Upload logs bundle to the Upload Service (https://uploads.jetbrains.com/) and let me know the Upload ID.
Have a nice day!
Hi, I've followed your instructions carefully and the phenomenon persists, so I've submitted the log.

Hello,
Thank you for the logs shared.
Please check, if setting the Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Toolset and Build | MSBuild version to the one in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\<edition>\MSBuild\Current\Bin\msbuild.exe and check if that helps.
If that doesn't help, please recollect the logs one more time:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\JetBrains\Rider{version}\logfolder;Have a nice day!
Sorry, I don't know which one I should use. By the way another thing, I'm using “.uproject” to open the rider, not “.sln”, does that have any effect?
.sln or .uproject shouldn't make effect here.
Try selecting C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/Community/MSBuild.Current/Bin/MSBuild.exe. Then rebuilt the project and check if that helps.
Have a nice day!
It did work, thank you.
Thank you for keeping me posted! I am glad to hear that I was able to help.
If there are no other questions, then I am going to proceed with archiving this ticket.
Should you have any other questions or difficulties in the future, do not hesitate to contact support.
Have a nice day!
