Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ProxymanApp/Proxyman/issues/956

Originally assigned to: @NghiaTranUIT on GitHub.

Proxyman version? 2.30.0

macOS Version? 11.4

Steps to reproduce

When a new connection triggers a breakpoint, the Breakpoints window grabs the OS focus and becomes the active window. If you are working in another window, this can be very disruptive, especially if a large number of breakpoints are being triggered.

Expected behavior

I would suggest that the Breakpoints window does not get focus when a breakpoint is triggered.

Screenshots (optional)

Thanks for your insight @alextesttesttest.

I would add a checkbox option on the breakpoint, so you can opt-out this behavior 👍
