I have an issue with trying to use the python debugger module. I have connected it to Pycharm, that was very easy and the connection seems to be ok. However, once I make the connection, I can’t get any code to run in Pycharm. When I go to the Run/Debugging Actions menu, everything is grayed out, except for Pause Program.

I am sure there is something simple I am missing here . . .

Thanks for any thoughts on this
