Spyder and Python Debug: can not set breakpoint

I am not able to add breakpoints in my spyder IDE with Python3.6

I have tried restarting my computer, but neither with F12nor by clicking on Debug -> Set/Clear breakpoint let's me enter a breakpoint. Could anybody explain what I am doing wrong? I am sure this is a stupid error.

I am running Spyder 3.1.2 on a Windows 10.

Thanks.

Solution

  • If you're trying to set new breakpoints after starting a debugging session in an IPython console, that was fixed in Spyder 3.1.3. So please update to that version.
