5.8 Using the Breakpoints Pane
The breakpoints pane displays all line and watch
breakpoints that are currently set in your program. You can disable, enable or remove breakpoints from this pane.
You can also use this pane to modify line breakpoints.
Follow these steps:
- To verify that the watch breakpoint has been set from the previous lesson,
click on the Breakpoints tab to display the Breakpoints Pane.
- You can tell if the watch breakpoint is enabled by the color of the icon
next to it. If enabled, its icon will appear red. If the icon is grey, the breakpoint
has been disabled.

Disabling a Breakpoint (Optional)
If you wish to disable a breakpoint, follow these steps:
- In the Breakpoints Pane, right-click on the breakpoint
that you want to disable.
- Select Disable Breakpoint. The breakpoint's icon turns grey.
A disabled breakpoint can be enabled also by right-clicking on the breakpoint. In
this case, select Enable Breakpoint.
