	Though I had deleted a breakpoint being set prior to debugging, at line 26, it still stops at that line. The breakpoint on line 28 is not being served. Is there a fix for adding breakpoints during debug session?

	As explained previously the serial debugger injects debug commands in the temp build folder during build. Therefore if you make any breakpoint changes for the serial debugger config you need to compile and upload again. Serial debugging is very different to hardware debugging. It is good practise to learn about each one by one then it is easier to be clear about the limitations and the features of each. You will find some/different restirctions with each type of debugger for all microcontrollers regardless of IDE. Thanks
