The Debug Output View shows all events in the same way as they are written to the log file (see Section 4.3.5, “Preferences — Paths”).

Figure 8.1. Debug Output

Paths and files with defined standard programs are marked as links (in blue and underlined). Click them to open the folder or file.

To clear the Debug Output, click it and press L. Alternatively, click the dustbin icon to the right. Clearing the debug console does not affect the log file, and clear actions are not logged.

A context menu with editing options is available when right-clicking the Debug Output. The context menu includes a submenu for managing message filters for debug messages, infos, errors, and warnings. These filters do not prevent messages from being printed, but only from being shown. This means that previously hidden messages will be shown when the message type is re-enabled, unless the Debug Output has been cleared.

Alternatively, there are four toggle buttons to the left of the Debug Output for controlling the visibility of certain message types. Error and warning messages are counted.

	Tip
	The visibility of the buttons on the left and right can be toggled in the Debug Output's context menu.

To the bottom right of the Debug Output, there is a button to jump to the first error message.
