updated last week, all is well
updated last night and now I can build and debug/run

the Vis micro automatically sets a breakpoint at loop() line and fails to run

I remove bvreakpoint and the vis micro again sets it.

1)
If you start with debugging but don't have any breakpoints then breakpoints are created for you.

If you switch from "Debug/Windows debugger" to "Release" then you will be starting without any debug so the breakpoints won't get in your way.

These two principals have always been the case and are the case for most software development Smiley

2) With Debug enabled

When you say "fails to run" I assume you mean it stops at a breakpoint and waits for F5/Continue? If this is not the case then please report which board you are using and what debug settings you have configured, if any.

i am in debug mode. there are no breakpoints set by me.  your latest version somehow creates the breakpooints.

how do i erase the breakpoint that your code auto creates?

I don't understand. 

What's the point of being in debug mode without any breakpoints?

Why not switch the toolbar to Release?

"Debug/Windows debugger" means "Debug" or "Local Windows debugger"

It's got a different name in the various visual studio versions which is why I give both.

It's always auto created breakpoints if you have "Visual Micro>Tutorial Mode" enabled.  However in the last version there was a mistake related to the new GDB debugger for the Arduino Zero.

I have just published an update to prevent that happening but actually it was quite a good things for people who don't read the documentation and therefore don't know when they are working with a debug build or not Smiley

Pressing button BUILD and UPLOAD (in my fdebug mofde on) wotrks great - auto opens the serial debugger.

however now in RELEASE mode, pressing the same button no longer auto opens the serial debugger.

hence I need the old behavior (before last night) to be restored.
please

Just open the serial monitor yourself and it will stay open. This is normal Arduino usage and the right way to use it.

The fact the debugger auto opens the serial isn't important and is only for debug purposes but you aren't using any debug.

As for an update, you need to read my posts above.

i dont want the serial debugger always open due to lack of screen space.,

is there a macro that I can create so that when I press BUILD and UPLOAD i can auto open the serial debuggeR?

As I said there is an update with a change that prevents the breakpoints.

No there is no macro to auto open serial (when in Release mode) after upload but it would be a good request to make in a new thread.
