Comment 1 ehucka 2007-10-26 09:02:03 UTC
Could you be more specific?
If you click on a editor side bar now a breakpoint (line, method, field) is created except the case when the side bar is
'blocked' by another editor annotation (see issue 105746).

thanks
Comment 2 _ theanuradha 2007-10-26 09:09:18 UTC
Click on side bar is ok but 'right click' on side bar should have toggle breakpoint like like eclipse doing,Then even
side bar is 'blocked' by another editor annotation still we can set breakpoints right ?
Comment 3 Martin Entlicher 2007-10-26 11:07:01 UTC
Well, we can consider this. But we're far after UI freeze for NB 6.0. :-(
Comment 4 _ theanuradha 2007-10-26 11:10:54 UTC
Any luck on Late UI Changes

From my point of view, this is a good RFE; must be approved by NB usablity team.
Anyway, shortcut CTRL+F8 or main manu action can be used in this case.

If We fix this even side bar is 'blocked' by another editor annotation still we can set breakpoints(see issue 105746).

Jano, what solution do you suggest to use here?
Comment 10 _ theanuradha 2007-12-06 11:18:42 UTC
any plans on 6.1 M1?
Comment 11 _ theanuradha 2008-02-22 08:56:26 UTC
any luck on 6.1
Comment 12 Martin Entlicher 2008-02-22 10:55:38 UTC
6.1 is considered to be a bugfix release without any new features.
This is a relatively light UI change, but the functionality needs to be assured across all debuggers.

We are considering more radical UI changes in a release after 6.1 so this will likely go there...
Comment 13 _ theanuradha 2008-05-15 14:53:56 UTC
any luck on 6.5 :(

Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/93c5a2066628
User: mentlicher@netbeans.org
Log: #120131 - Add Toggle Breakpoint action to the gutter context menu so that breakpoint can be submitted even when gutter is occupied by other annotations.
