The Error Log Pop-up Menu

The Error Log view contains a pop-up menu, which you can access by right-clicking in the view. The pop-up menu lets you perform the actions described in the following list:

Copy

Copies the item currently selected to the Windows clipboard.

Clear Log Viewer

Clears the log data displayed in the Error Log view (the Error Log file remains intact).

Delete Log

Deletes the contents of the Error log.

Open Log

Opens the current Error log using Notepad to view Error Log content that may not be displayed in the Error Log view when the view was cleared.

Restore Log

Restores the entire contents of the current Error Log to the Error Log view display.

Export Log

Exports the current Error Log file to an external file on the Windows file system.

Import Log

Imports an Error Log you exported from a previous debug session to replace the current Error Log file. The imported file must adhere to the Error Log file format to be displayed correctly in the Error Log view. The imported Error Log is for viewing purposes only.

Note: Error output from the current debug session continues to be written to the Error Log file that was in use when you started the Diagram Trace Utility. The imported Log currently being viewed is not updated with errors pertaining to the current debug session.

If you import an Error Log file, the text of the Error Log view toolbar icon and the Pop-up menu option used to restore the current log changes from Restore Log to Restore This Workspace’s Log. The Restore This Workspace’s Log function causes the current debug session Error Log file to replace the previously imported log file in the Error Log view.

Event Details

Opens an Event details dialog to display a detailed explanation of the selected error.
