How do I see data contained in a control during debugging in Intellij?

The variables window doesn't actually show me a "control" (i.e. ComboBox, TextBox) value but a {} indicating something and some other extraneous data. Is there a way just to simply see the value during debug? This information is valuable but not as valuable as seeing the actual value.

In other IDEs I use, I can just mouse over the control in debug mode to see value. I don't typically have to add it to a watch or bookmark in the code. However, in the Intellij IDEA IDE I cannot figure out how to see the value other than assigning to a variable or message prompt.

Thanks
