In STM32CubeIDE, not getting variable values while hovering in debugger

Before upgrading to STM32CubeIDE, in SW4STM32 specifically, I could hover over a variable when the code was paused and see its value. This only works -sometimes- in CubeIDE. I have to click away, double click on another word, tab away and back again, etc (ie, it feels inconsistent) to get it to show me a value on hover. Anyone experience this or have any idea what is going on here?

Make sure you're in the stack frame of the variable you're trying to view. Wouldn't be surprised if it was just an Eclipse oddity. It's not the most robust platform.

I don't think it's an eclipse bug, as that feature works so reliably in both of my older installs of SW4STM32. I'd still be using those if CubeIDE wasn't so handy with the live expressions!
