"
Jump to breakpoints": If this option is selected,
Visual Micro will jump to the source code line of a breakpoint when
this breakpoint is hit and code execution is stopped.
"
Jump to trace points": If this option is selected,
Visual Micro will jump to the source code line of a breakpoint even
if
Visual Micro is configured so that code is not stopping
there (e.g. by "
Auto continue" below). This is
useful to see the code executing in a "live" manner.
"Auto continue": If enabled, breakpoints will
not halt the execution of the sketch, but the sketch will continue
execution if a breakpoint is hit. However, you will be able to
follow the flow of execution by watching the Output Window.
In conjunction with "Jump to breakpoints"
or "Jump to tracepoints" enabled, you can follow
the flow of execution in your source code, as every breakpoint hit
will be shown in the source window.
"Disable all breakpoints": This will disable all
breakpoints in your sketch, so that nothing will show up in the
Output Window and in the source code window.
You can enable/disable breakpoints individually if
you right click on the breakpoint icon in your source window and
select "Enable/Disable breakpoint". Both methods of disabling
require
rebuilding and uploading your sketch and can be selected at any time.
