 This command can be accessed through the context menu, and from the objects tool, and watches tools thanks to the tool bar's button [ [[Image:execution-object-storage-icon]] ]. 
 
-By Pick-and-Dropping a debuggee object onto the button [ [[Image:execution-object-storage-icon]] ], you raise the "save" dialog. Then you need to choose the target filename where we'll store the debuggee object.

 The first part in the dialog makes it possible to select the context of the expression. 
-*  The default context is the context of the [[Information relative to a stack element|currently selected call stack element]]. This context gives access to the locals, the arguments, the result and the enclosing object features.
