Hi @SChandlee-ARIFleet Thank you for reporting this. I"m going to attempt a repro, see if I can figure out what's going on. Does this happen with any bot you try, or one specific type?

[SChandlee-ARIFleet]

Thanks Jessica! I only tried it with a Bot Composer/Scratch project.

Apologies, I've been out.

I'm going to need to get repro steps from you to properly reproduce your error.

BOT Framework Composer v1.3.1
'Use custom runtime'

VSCode
Open folder where runtime was built
Set breakpoint in [botprojectname].dialog
Start Debugger
breakpoint will be an open circle instead of closed circle

Connect emulator to the debug port
breakpoints set in .net files will work

**If there is a way to set this up without the "custom runtime" step, I am open to any recommendations

@jwiley84 I hope this is enough information. If not, let me know

Update: @jwiley84 is working on this right now.

[jwiley84]

Using a simple EchoBot, I am able to repro this.
I'm going to try to make a LUIS bot, and see if this is limited to echo, or if it's across the board. Thank you for your patience.

Thanks @jwiley84 . This means that we have a bug in the debugging library or somewhere in the adaptive / declarative library. Adding to R14 backlog for the dev team to be aware, investigate and fix. Note that our next release to happen in late April is already feature complete so this would be released afterwards unfortunately. If in the process of investigating we find a workaround or have a fix in a nightly build, we';ll update this bug with that information.
