Action Points

The Action Points tab controls action point behavior.

Figure 98, Preferences: Action Points

Action Point Options:

Automatically focus on threads/processes at breakpoint

If selected, TotalView automatically focuses on the active thread and/or process when your program reaches a breakpoint. Unlike other action point preferences, this preference changes how existing action points behave. For more information, see the TV::GUI::pop_at_breakpoint variable.

Load action point file automatically

When set, TotalView automatically loads action points when it loads a file. For more information, see the Action Point > Load All command and the TV::auto_load_actionpoints variable.

Save action point file on exit

When set, TotalView automatically saves action points to an action points file when you exit. For more information, see the Action Point > Save All command and the TV::auto_save_breakpoints variable.
