Description Geertjan Wielenga 2014-06-01 08:40:42 UTC
Make it easier and more discoverable to define Profiling Points -- include the "Insert Profiling Point" action in the glyph gutter, so that its usage is the same as "Toggle Line Breakpoint":

Comment 1 Tomas Hurka 2014-06-18 14:45:50 UTC
Enabling Profiling Point menu in glyph gutter for all file types is really ugly. This should be solved somehow. Also I don't understand the second part of the enhancement 'A small bonus tip: how to cause the New Profiling Point dialog to appear in the same way as a breakpoint is set, i.e., by simply clicking in the glyph gutter on a particular line' - how does one insert breakpoint in such configuration?
