1406.16

• Trace Only Mode - Replaces the Enable Break/Pause project property. Defaults to Off, allowing breakpoints to break/step
• Fix - Serial window correctly resets after upload
• Fix - Incorrect build output was copied to Atmel Studio configuration build folder
• Fix - Arduino Due debug with Native USB port
• Change - Automatic debugging will only debug when the configuration name contains the text "release" (previously all configurations allowed debug including Release, this was confusing and prevented simple non-debug F5 upload)
• New - Stop button (red dot) appears on the Serial Port tool bar when debug starts. The button is a quick way to terminate debug
• Change - Only the F5/Debug command will now "Continue" at a break point. All other "build" and "debug" commands will stop the current debug session (where applicable).

Tools>Visual Micro - Menu changes and additions

• New items - Quick access to existing global options, some items renamed
• New - "Tools>Visual Micro>Tutorial Mode" places additional messages around the UI to help new users
• New - Verbose compiler and compiler warnings can be enabled via the Tools>Visual Micro menu.
• Fix - A Visual Studio bug caused some menu items to be duplicated for some users. This affected the debug and help menu. The items have been removed or moved.
• Fix - Some optimizations where failing during editing of sketches. This might have impacted slower pc's by causing more cpu usage then needed
• Fix - Status bar highlighting and the "F5 Continue" message disappeared from the status bar too quickly and could be missed by users.
• Fix - Prevent 'Upload via programmer' from resetting the serial terminal (if it is open)
