PPU View

Event Viewer - PPU View

The Event Viewer's PPU view allows you to visually check the timing at which various events (register read/writes, NMIs, IRQs, etc.) occur. This can be useful when trying to perform timing-critical mid-frame changes to the PPU, or to verify that PPU updates finish before vertical blank ends, etc.

The colors can be configured and it's also possible to define breakpoints as marks to be shown on the Event Viewer. This is done by enabling a breakpoint's Mark on Event Viewer option. This allows the event viewer to be used to display virtually any special event that needs to be tracked.

List View

Event Viewer - List View

The list view displays the same general information as the PPU view, but in a sortable list.
