How to get the value without encoding in vb.net watch?

Question

In vb.net in debugging you can watch a variable and right click.

There are options between copy and copy value.

There is little differences. I basically got this

"[" & vbCrLf & " {" & vbCrLf & " ""id"": 22812485751," & vbCrLf & " ""currencyPair"": ""ORME/BTC""," & vbCrLf & " ""goodUntilTime"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""type"": ""LIMIT_SELL""," & vbCrLf & " ""orderStatus"": ""EXECUTED""," & vbCrLf & " ""issueTime"": 1539721209920," & vbCrLf & " ""price"": 2.726E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""quantity"": 1733.83246147," & vbCrLf & " ""remainingQuantity"": 0.0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionByTrade"": 8.508E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusByTrade"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusRate"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionRate"": 0.0018," & vbCrLf & " ""lastModificationTime"": 1539727280096" & vbCrLf & " }," & vbCrLf & " {" & vbCrLf & " ""id"": 19661583751," & vbCrLf & " ""currencyPair"": ""ORME/ETH""," & vbCrLf & " ""goodUntilTime"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""type"": ""LIMIT_BUY""," & vbCrLf & " ""orderStatus"": ""EXECUTED""," & vbCrLf & " ""issueTime"": 1537113087231," & vbCrLf & " ""price"": 0.00110001," & vbCrLf & " ""quantity"": 1733.83246562," & vbCrLf & " ""remainingQuantity"": 0.0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionByTrade"": 0.003433," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusByTrade"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusRate"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionRate"": 0.0018," & vbCrLf & " ""lastModificationTime"": 1538092923124" & vbCrLf & " }," & vbCrLf & " {" & vbCrLf & " ""id"": 19669018551," & vbCrLf & " ""currencyPair"": ""ORME/BTC""," & vbCrLf & " ""goodUntilTime"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""type"": ""LIMIT_SELL""," & vbCrLf & " ""orderStatus"": ""EXECUTED""," & vbCrLf & " ""issueTime"": 1537118640003," & vbCrLf & " ""price"": 4.302E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""quantity"": 1140.08057366," & vbCrLf & " ""remainingQuantity"": 0.0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionByTrade"": 8.829E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusByTrade"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusRate"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionRate"": 0.0018," & vbCrLf & " ""lastModificationTime"": 1537119048771" & vbCrLf & " }," & vbCrLf & " {" & vbCrLf & " ""id"": 19666104251," & vbCrLf & " ""currencyPair"": ""ORME/BTC""," & vbCrLf & " ""goodUntilTime"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""type"": ""LIMIT_ SELL""," & vbCrLf & " ""orderStatus"": ""PARTIALLY_FILLED_AND_CANCELLED""," & vbCrLf & " ""issueTime"": 1537116476248," & vbCrLf & " ""price"": 4.25E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""quantity"": 7487.1," & vbCrLf & " ""remainingQuantity"": 1140.08057366," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionByTrade"": 0.00048563," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusByTrade"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusRate"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionRate"": 0.0018," & vbCrLf & " ""lastModificationTime"": 1537116507585" & vbCrLf & " }," & vbCrLf & " {" & vbCrLf & " ""id"": 19661490851," & vbCrLf & " ""currencyPair"": ""ETH/BTC""," & vbCrLf & " ""goodUntilTime"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""type"": ""LIMIT_BUY""," & vbCrLf & " ""orderStatus"": ""EXECUTED""," & vbCrLf & " ""issueTime"": 1537113025233," & vbCrLf & " ""price"": 0.03357901," & vbCrLf & " ""quantity"": 1.91066607," & vbCrLf & " ""remainingQuantity"": 0.0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionByTrade"": 0.00011548," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusByTrade"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusRate"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionRate"": 0.0018," & vbCrLf & " ""lastModificationTime"": 1537113028429" & vbCrLf & " }," & vbCrLf & " {" & vbCrLf & " ""id"": 17637942051," & vbCrLf & " ""currencyPair"": ""ORME/BTC""," & vbCrLf & " ""goodUntilTime"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""type"": ""LIMIT_SELL""," & vbCrLf & " ""orderStatus"": ""EXECUTED""," & vbCrLf & " ""issueTime"": 1535545801765," & vbCrLf & " ""price"": 4.5E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""quantity"": 2289.92000001," & vbCrLf & " ""remainingQuantity"": 0.0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionByTrade"": 0.00018916," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusByTrade"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusRate"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionRate"": 0.0018," & vbCrLf & " ""lastModificationTime"": 1535545801765" & vbCrLf & " }," & vbCrLf & " {" & vbCrLf & " ""id"": 17637532551," & vbCrLf & " ""currencyPair"": ""ORME/BTC""," & vbCrLf & " ""goodUntilTime"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""type"": ""LIMIT_SELL""," & vbCrLf & " ""orderStatus"": ""PARTIALLY_FILLED_AND_CANCELLED""," & vbCrLf & " ""issueTime"": 1535545474694," & vbCrLf & " ""price"": 4. 78E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""quantity"": 2487.1," & vbCrLf & " ""remainingQuantity"": 2289.92000001," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionByTrade"": 1.697E-05," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusByTrade"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""bonusRate"": 0," & vbCrLf & " ""commissionRate"": 0.0018," & vbCrLf & " ""lastModificationTime"": 1535545515636" & vbCrLf & " }" & vbCrLf & "]"

And that sucks and hard to read. If a string contains a json, I want to see the json as it actually is. I want to be able to copy that to notepad.

How do I do so?

Here is what you can do when debugging.

1. put mouse over your variable. Popup menu will show up and there you will see magnifying lens

• click that

  2. Right-click on your variable, select "Quick Watch" in the menu a screen will show

click magnifying lens
