breakpoint symbols

IDE: Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019
Version 16.5.4, OS: Windows 10 Pro, board: node MCU

When I set breakpoints I am seeing symbols in the far left column of code window and breakpoint window which I dont recognize. In addition to the usual round red icon (filled or not filled), I am getting a red diamond (also filled or not filled). I have not found reference to this in documentation or here on the forum.

What does this red diamond signify?

The diamond is a Break point where the "Continue Code Execution" box is checked on its actions, making it into a trace point (the different symbol is shown so you know the program will not stop there).
