Task Builder Toolbar Options

The Debug toolbar (illustrated below) is a small floating window that appears when a task is run from the Task Builder. It contains buttons to stop, pause, re-run and step through an active task to further aid you during the development stage. The Debug toolbar automatically closes upon completion of a running task or you can close it at any time by clicking "x".

The Debug toolbar supports hot-keys (also known as shortcut keys) that can be used as an alternate control mechanism. You can change the default 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. In addition, you can choose to show or hide the Debug toolbar or have it always appear in the foreground or background.

To access the Toolbar Options page in the Task Builder, select File > Options > Debugger > Toolbar. Toolbar options is a subset of Task Builder Options.
