2G) The Watch Pane.
This allows you to view various variables and/or objects/properties as the code progresses. This can also be used to show results of calculations and even to cause the code to stop when certain conditions are met.

If there is a variable (even a property of an object) that is not immediately visible in the Locals Pane, then pretty well anything can be displayed here. It can also cause a breakpoint when a variable contains a particular value, or even changes its value. This can prove very helpful when something turns out wrong but you don't know where it's being changed in the code.
