Using Rich live full screen with pdb debugging

[miohtama]

If I set a breakpoint using ipdb (or pdb to related matter), in Rich application that is in rich.live.Live mode, the console debugger does not work. I guess this is because Rich takes over terminal and pdb would need some sort of reset for the terminal to function correctly.

I am running my application as:

Live(console=console, screen=True, auto_refresh=False)

And when it hits a breakpoint the debugger looks like:

Basically, pdb is squeezed to one line height.

How can I use ipdb / ipdb with Rich live fullscreen applications? Do I need to have some command / hook to release the terminal for pdb?

For the record the trick

import os ; os.system("stty sane")

does not seem to work.
