Is there a setting to turn on this funcionality?. thanks in advance.

Hi
Please note that this is also the case in Intellij 2018.3.2.
Please repair this functionality.
Best regards
Try this:
Settings > Build,Execution,Deployment > Debugger
Keep "Focus application on breakpoint" NOT Selected
Lol, that seems buggy. If "Focus application on breakpoint" is checked, nothing happens when a breakpoint is hit. However, if you uncheck "Focus application on breakpoint" it will actually focus the application when a breakpoint is hit.
Using intellij with multiple desktops in Windows, a blinking icon would be amazing. No more staring at the screen for 20 seconds before realizing I need to switch desktops because a breakpoint may have triggered...
