[Feature]: Show variable value on hover #110

Closed tahsinature closed 8 months ago

tahsinature commented 11 months ago

What happened?

It sometimes gets annoying to go back and forth between the request and environment page to see which value a variable using. It would be nicer if we could see the current value by hovering over the variable.

Steps to reproduce?

1. Use a variable. It can be in the URL / Headers / Body.
2. Try to see what's the value of the variable.

What did you expect to happen?

To show the current value of the variable.

Hey @tahsinature, thanks for reaching out.

You should be able to see the variable value in a simple tooltip on hover — does it not appear for you?
