2 or 3 issues with Turbo Debugger 3.2 and the application screen

Question

Hi !

I am running Turbo Debugger v3.2 with an old DOS application. The application works well on its own, and TD allows me to single step (until it crashes). Furthermore:

1. ALT + F5 (TurboDebugger command) doesn't switch to the screen that the application is drawing: it just does nothing
2. if I run dosbox-x with "-display2" I see the second screen, but Turbo debugger doesn't use it (doesn't detect it?)
3. if I run the command "mode mono" before starting Turbo Debugger then Turbo Debugger shows correctly its screen in grayscale, but crashes/hangs as soon as I try to run my program.
4. if I press F9 (run) from TurboDebugger the apps starts running well, but if I single step, the whole thing (TD + the app) crashes/hangs when the app initializes the SVGA settings.

I wonder if anyone knows how to solve this or can at least see in the logs what is failing. I can provide on a private email the software to reproduce this.

Many thanks in advance !

@maron2000 Hi ! Do you think you can take a 5 minutes look at this issue with Turbo Debugger ? (I do not mean that you solve it completely, but just take a look, maybe in 5 min you can already find something to fix later)

Sorry, I don't know how to use the debugger so I can't test.
And I also don't have a second monitor to test as well.

FWIW... You don't need a second monitor to use the -display2 option. You just need to run DOSBox-X in windowed mode and the 2nd display will actually be a terminal window.
