Breakpoints Icons and Statuses
When a breakpoint is set, the editor displays a breakpoint icon in the gutter area to the left of the affected source code. A breakpoint icon denotes status of a breakpoint, and provides useful information about its type, location, and action.
The icons serve as convenient shortcuts for managing breakpoints. Clicking an icon removes the breakpoint. Successive use of Alt - click on an icon toggles its state between enabled and disabled. The settings of a breakpoint are shown in a tooltip when a mouse pointer hovers over a breakpoint icon in the gutter area of the editor, or by right-clicking an icon.
The table below summarizes the possible breakpoint states:
Status | Line Python / Django/ JavaScript | Temporary Line | Exception Python / Django / JavaScript | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Enabled | Shown at design-time or during the debugging session. | |||
Disabled | Indicates that nothing happens when the breakpoint is hit. | |||
Conditionally disabled | This state is assigned to breakpoints when they depend on another breakpoint to be activated. |
