Execution point arrows Follow

Why doesn't this post get a reply; it's incredibly annoying. Currently, every time while debugging, Clion (2022.3, Build #CL-223.7571.171) halts at the orange arrow (execution point) somewhere early in my code and I have to continue (F9) through a loop many times until my code hits the place where I am interested in. If it was a breakpoint, I could remove it. But it's not; it seems to be the run-to-execution-point which I didn't (intentionally) invoke. Setting the execution point to the place I am interested in doesn't help. It just reverts to this place. I also tried moving it in the same function: same result: it just reverts to this wrong place.

Is there a way to turn off / unset the execution point (orange arrow) and the 'run-to-execution-point' behavior. I use breakpoints.

Hi Pum!

Such situations might happen when the breakpoint is set at one line and is actually resolved at the other line. Please see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-6237

You can check that by executing br l in case of LLDB or info breakpoints in case of GDB in the Debugger console.

Hey Anna, well, that is clear. Thanks very much for helping me. 

Yea, but not very helpful is it.

Mitch Raful there is no way to disable the arrow.

BTW there is a feature request to somehow mark actual breakpoint location when it is set on a line without code or have multiple locations - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-8609 .
