How to break in NIOS?

If I let the debugger run, and then I want to break the program, whereever it is, how do I do that? I would expect to have a 'pause' or 'break now' button, but I cannot seem to find ...

The debugger does in fact have a "pause" (break) icon as well as "play" (run) and "stop" (stop debugging). Look for it in a tool-bar just below the various menus (file, edit, etc.). You need to be in the "debug perspective" of the IDE (which should automaticaly happen for you if you have started the debugger).[/b]

I see the &#39;pause&#39; is there, right next to the &#39;Terminate&#39; icon. The problem is that they are both grayed (disabled) while the app is running. Even though I am in debug....

Am I missing something?
