Hello,

I have a “back button” scheme that includes using an array to store references to functions. However, when i have to troubleshoot something like this, one of the things i’d like to be able to trace is the names of the functions that are in the array. If i trace a for loop through the array i just get [type Function] for each function. I would like to look at it’s name.

Right now, im using a workaround that places objects with a func property and a funcName property, which is a string that needs to be indicated manually.

Is there a way to simply trace the name of my funcitons?
