Viewing Log Information
The Log Manager is a collection of log outputs, where each test system component can report information. The Log Manager contains one log per test component, and one common pane that is used for general information.
Examples of actions that can result in log information:
- Analysis of one or more tables: The resulting errors (if any).
- Opening an MP file: Result of the operation.
- Simulation: Simulator traces are reported on both the component log, and the general log.
The Log Manager can be configured to behave in various ways. The default setting is for the Log Manager to be hidden, but appear whenever log output is present. Only one instance of the Log Manager is available.
The contents of each log can be saved as a text file.
You can open tables by clicking and then <Ctrl>-right-clicking the name of the table in the log.
Automatic Appearance
The Log Manager can be made to automatically become visible whenever new information is available in a log. This can be handy to reduce the amount of windows open at a given time as the Log Manager can be closed when it is not needed.
To allow the Log Manager to automatically open whenever new information is available:
Changing the Appearance of the Log
The log font can be made smaller or larger, allowing more information to be viewed or increased readability.
Exporting Information from the Log
The information contained in a log can be copied to the clipboard, or saved to disk as an ordinary text file. In addition to normal text-selection, all text can also be selected with one operation.
To copy the selection to the clipboard:
To save all text in a log to a file:
