    Mach3 VB Breakpoints

    When using the Mach3 built in debugger, I can't seem to get the breakpoints to work as I expect.

    I set a breakpoint on a line of code. My expectation is that if I click "run", than the program will execute to that point and stop there, wait for me to press run, or step, again.

    But when I press run, the script runs, passes the breakpoint, apparently ignoring it. I do not have the breakpoint nested inside some control structure that is being bypassed. I'm setting it on lines that are being executed when I step through the code one line at a time.

    Are the breakpoints functional? How do you use them if they are?

    Re: Mach3 VB Breakpoints

    Nevermind, I found the issue. I was right clickin gand picking the BP. If I used the ribbon bar to set it it worked.

    Double testing I found, if I open a new file, and right click on a BP it does nto work. If I toggle that same BP with the ribbon bar toggle BP button, it does not work. BUT if I set a BP for the first time with the ribbon bar icon, then all BP's work, even the one that did not before.

    Just a little bug. Leaving this post here for posterity in case anyone else hits it.
