View Function/line trace without source

Hi, when I debug a build using RemedyBG on a machine with the .exe, .pdb, and access to the source tree, I can see the Function name/line number info etc in the Call Stack panel when the program crashes. However when I run it on a machine with only the .exe and .pdb (in the same folder), the column is blank. Sorry if I'm misunderstanding something, doesn't the .pdb hold that information? Or is there a way to export the crash dump from Remedy and load it on the machine with access to the source?

You can check in the "Modules" panel if the PDB for your executable is correctly loaded.

I think that remedybg try to search next to your exe for PDBs, but I'm not sure.

In the session menu, there is a "Symbol Paths" section where you can add paths for remedybg to look for PDBs, but I think it needs to be set before the application starts (adding it after a crash won't search the paths for PDBs).
