Hi Erel

The new capabilities in this version are outstanding, even given its Beta status.

I may have found a bug.

I had a breakpoint set on a line of code - everything worked as expected, the program paused at the breakpoint. No problem.

I then cut the line of code with the breakpoint set and pasted it elsewhere in my code.

The breakpoint marker (red circle) no longer showed in the left margin of the IDE, but the breakpoint on that line still appeared to be active - the program paused at that line.

I guess this comes down to how you view that breakpoint - should it be cleared totally when you do a cut (or copy) and paste, or should it travel with the code?

Incidentally, this appeared to throw the IDE into confusion. I moved the lines with the breakpoint again to another part of the Sub, and when I compiled, the IDE told me that there was no longer a device connected even though my Android phone was still showing connected for debugging.

Restarting the IDE did not fix the problem. I had to unplug the device and restart the IDE to get the Compile and Run to work correctly again. Once I restarted the IDE, the phantom Breakpoint had cleared itself.
