The Text Editor window contains margin indicators that provide visual cues to certain actions during the editing of your code.
The margin indicators appear in the Margin Indicator bar on left side of the Text Editor window. You can turn the Margin Indicator bar on and off in the General page of the Text Editor options in the Options dialog box.
Margin Indicator | Named | Indicates |
Enabled Breakpoint | A breakpoint that you set using the Toggle Breakpoint command on the Debug menu. You can toggle the breakpoint by placing your mouse pointer in the Margin Indicator bar and clicking. |
Current Line of Execution | The line of code that will be executed next. You can drag this margin indicator to a new location within any running code module to mark the line of code to be executed next. If you drag the Current Line of Execution margin indicator to any nonvalid region or line, nothing happens and the indicator returns to the original location. | |
Bookmark | The location of a bookmark set using the Toggle Bookmark command on the Edit menu. | |
Call Stack Marker | Lines that are currently in the call stack and the current line of code that is about to be executed. The Call Stack Marker indicator appears only in break mode. | |
Disabled Breakpoints | The location of a breakpoint that has been disabled and will be ignored when the code is run. | |
Breakpoint in Error | An invalid breakpoint exists. This breakpoint will be ignored when code is run. | |
Shortcut | A named shortcut that you created using the Toggle Shortcut command on the shortcut menu. It appears in the Task List. This is the equivalent of Named Bookmarks. |
