GenyMotion Plug-In for Eclipse

I have the GenyMotion plugin installed in Eclipse. Boy, is it better than built-in emulator. My question. When I run the built-in emulator, I can set break points in my code, and the debug process works fine. I cannot figure out how to do the same with GenyMotion. I drag and drop the apk onto the emulator and run the app. But Eclipse does not enter debug mode. How can I make the connection between Eclipse and GenyMotion? Debug configurations do not include an option to run GenyMotion, just the built-in emulator. Help appreciated.

Use the Run->Debug as-> menu to install your app on the Genymotion target instead of dragging & dropping the apk.

If you don't see the Genymotion as a target, it means it's not connected to the debug bridge (adb). This should happen automatically, but in case it doesn't, you can open a shell and try to (re)connect it:

adb connect 192.168.56.101

Replace the IP address with the address of your Genymotion instance (if different). You can find the address in the Genymotion Configuration app included in the VM.
