The Menu Bar
Exporting any of the Logs
After opening a log, you can optionally export it to a text file by clicking the Export icon (
)
above the table. The Save As dialog box will open. In effect, the current contents of the log is
copied to a separate CSV file and saved in the folder you specify.
You can also export a log even without opening it. When the four log names are listed in the
table, click on the desired log name in the table to select it, then click the Export button.
Setting the number of entries to be saved in each Log
By default, the maximum number of entries in each of the four logs is set to 300. This means
that if a log file reaches the limit of 300 entries, then the next entry (301st entry) would overwrite
the oldest (first entry) in the log, the 302nd entry would overwrite the second entry in the log,
and so on. In this way, the most recent 300 entries are always retained.
To change the maximum number of entries to be saved in any of the logs, select Console
Menu > Preferences... > Logs. The minimum value allowed is 1, and the maximum allowed is
9999. This is explained in detail in the next section.
