Removing breakpoints
</h1>
<p>
Breakpoints can be easily removed when you no longer need them.
</p>
<ol>
<li>
In the editor area, open the file where you want to remove the breakpoint.
</li>
<li> Directly to the left of the line where you want to remove the breakpoint,
open the marker bar pop-up menu and select <strong>Toggle Breakpoint</strong>.
The breakpoint is removed from the workbench.&nbsp; You can also double-click
directly on the breakpoint icon to remove it. </li>
</ol>
Breakpoints can also be removed in the <strong>Breakpoints view</strong>. Select the breakpoint(s) to be removed and from the context menu select <strong>Remove</strong>.<br>
All breakpoints can be removed from the workbench using the <strong>Remove All</strong> action in the context menu of the <strong>Breakpoints view</strong>.
<p>If you find yourself frequently adding and removing a breakpoint in the
same place, consider disabling the breakpoint when you don't need it (using <strong>Disable
Breakpoint </strong>in the breakpoint context menu or the <strong>Breakpoints view</strong>)
and enabling it when needed again.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
