Re: Opinions on Atmel Studio4 sw?

The simulator/debug seems to miss single stepping through procedures,

a menu somewhere for showing this?

I don't know Atmel Studio, but I know GCC and maybe you compiled it with
optimizing settings (e.g. -O3), which can confuse the debugger, because
there is not always a 1:1 mapping between C code and assembler after
optimizing. Try compiling it in debug mode, e.g. with -O0 -g3.
