Managing Perspectives in the Log Inspector

A perspective is a predefined layout of panels in the Log Inspector.

When you perform a task in the Log Inspector, make sure you choose the right perspective for the job.

To manage your perspectives, click Debug | Perspective Manager.

• To switch to a different perspective, double-click the perspective name, or select it and click Open.
• To change the default perspective, select the perspective name and click Set Default.
• To delete a perspective, select the perspective name and click Delete.
• To create a custom perspective, see Creating Custom Perspectives in the Log Inspector.

The following perspectives are predefined:

• All (default)
  
• Debug: A perspective designed for code debugging that includes the Execution Log, Source and Variables panels.
  
• Log Only: An all-purpose perspective for viewing log execution that includes the Execution Log panel only.
  
• Analysis: A perspective designed for log analysis that includes the Stack Tree, Execution Stack, Execution Log, and Execution Overview panels.
  

Use a perspective that makes completing your task fast and easy. Every developer has a different style; if one of the predefined perspectives doesn’t meet your needs, it’s easy to design your own. For details, see Creating Custom Perspectives in the Log Inspector
