How to break out of loop when debugging?

I tried using the break statement, but I just get a Error: A BREAK statement appeared outside of a loop. Use RETURN instead. error despite the fact that I am definitely inside a while loop right now.

I don't think you can do that.
I have the same problem

Hi,
If you are trying to know how to come out of a loop while debugging, you could just place a breakpoint just below the loop and click on continue(F5).
As far as the error is concerned, you might have probably missed or misplaced an 'end'.

I had exactly the same thought while debugging a lengthy file: every-time setting a breakpoint and typing F5 feels clumsy.
As a user I would suggest the following: make a hotkey to exit the loop in debugging mode, for example ctrl-shift-F11.
I think it is potentially a handy feature that users would appreciate.

In the editor you can point to a line, right click and choose "run to cursor"
