I have an arrow symbol in the line where I would like to have a break point (see first red circle). How can I tell Eclipse to always show the break point symbol?
Is there an Eclipse setting to show the breakpoint symbol always on top? Or can I choose a larger break point icon that would be visible behind the arrow?
In order to reproduce the issue, search for a string that is located on the line (Strg+H) and use the search result tree to navigate to that line.
Work around: right click on the arrow symbol. If there is an option "Disable Breakpoint" the Breakpoint is currently active.
Couple of possible solutions:
1) Don't show search result arrow:
Go to Window -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Annotations. Click Search Results and un-check Vertical ruler checkbox. Apply.
2) Highlight line where breakpoint is set.
Go to Window -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Annotations. Click Breakpoints and check Text as checkbox. Apply.
