# Breakpoints pane

The Breakpoints pane enables you to set and manage breakpoints, to help analyze the effects of the script on your application at predetermined points during script execution. To view the pane, select View > Debug > Breakpoints.

Tip: You can move this pane to different areas of the Main User Interface. For details, see How to modify the VuGen layout.
