Show the Character Strings of structure when Hovering over it thru a little scrollable window

Show the Character Strings of structure when Hovering over it thru a little scrollable window, or open up a window to expand the structure without having to go back to finding it work storage or temporarily adding it to the monitor list.
When hovering over a variable and the variable window displays the varialbe name with an = sign and no data; The ?hover field? is misleading in lots of ways, but most importantly it leads one to believe it is a character string instead of a structure and that it is empty and that you are already past the problem when in fact there is no problem -- just misleading presentation
