Set and use breakpoints
-
Click the Sources icon on the toolbar to display the Sources panel.
-
In the line gutter of the document pane, click the line where you want to set a
breakpoint. A breakpoint marker appears in the line gutter and the new
breakpoint is added to the Breakpoints pane, identified by the script filename
and line number. The execution of the script pauses at the specified
breakpoint.
-
Perform any of the following actions:
- To continue the execution of the script beyond the current breakpoint,
click the Continue button in the
Sources panel toolbar.
- To display the line of code associated with the breakpoint in the
documents pane, click the breakpoint entry in the
Breakpoints pane. The document pane displays and
highlights the associated line.
- To disable a single breakpoint without removing it, in the
Breakpoints pane, uncheck the breakpoint. The
execution of the script no longer pauses at the disabled
breakpoint.
- To deactivate or activate all the breakpoints listed in the
Breakpoints pane without removing them, toggle
the breakpoint activation switch at the right side of the
Scripts panel toolbar.
- To remove a breakpoint, locate and click the breakpoint marker in the
line gutter of the document pane. The marker no longer appears in the line
gutter and the breakpoint is removed from the
Breakpoints pane.
