Desktop Log

The Desktop Log window is accessed from the OpenSpirit Desktop by choosing the Help > View Log menu item. The Desktop Log window displays informational messages generated by the OpenSpirit Desktop tools. The Desktop Log Level setting on the OpenSpirit Desktop preferences page controls the amount of detail that appears in the Desktop Log window.

The log messages are written to a file named Desktop.log in your OpenSpirit logs folder.

The location and name of the Desktop's log file is shown at the top of the log window.

Click the Refresh button at the bottom left of the Desktop Log window to show any new entries that may have been written to the log file since the log window was opened.

Check the Wrap lines option to wrap long lines and eliminate the horizontal scroll bar.

Click the Save As button to save the current content of the log file to another file of your choosing. New entries continue to be written to the original log file. The save as option creates a copy of the log file, it does not rename or replace it.
