Folks,
I am running into another IDL 8.2 Workbench issue this morning.
I'm trying to debug a program, so I have put a breakpoint
in a drawing program. As I step though, I get to a long
FOR loop, which I would like to skip over. I set the
cursor to the first line of code after the FOR loop,
and choose "Run to Line" (Cntl-R). The code executes,
and I am located on the right line.
But, now I can no longer step though my code! The F6
key no longer works and the Step In, Step Over, Step Out,
and Skip keywords are grayed out in the Run menu. Sigh...
Any ideas how to get my debugging capabilities back?
Thanks,
David

Yes, something bigger is wrong. Once I get into this state nothing works
as I expect it to. :-)
Cheers,
David
