Step Filtering Preferences
The Step Filtering Preferences page allows you to select certain resources/file patterns which will not be 'stepped into'/displayed during debugging.
This feature should be used when there are files which you do not want to inspect during debugging. This is especially useful if you have included large external resources (such as a framework or library).
The Step Filtering Preferences page is accessed from Window | Preferences | PHP | Debug | Step Filtering.
