Task Builder Debug Toolbar Preferences

The Debug toolbar (illustrated below) is a small floating bar that appears when a task is run In the Task Builder. It contains buttons to stop, pause, re-run and step through an active task to aid task developers during development stage. The Debug toolbar displays in a separate window while the task runs. There's also a set of shortcut keys that can be used when testing a task. You can change the toolbar shortcut keys to any desired key combinations not already in use, and you can change the position of the Debug toolbar on the screen.
