Output Panel
Output Panel is the result panel at the bottom of the main window that shows script output, runtime errors, and search results across three tabs. Show it from View → View Result List (Ctrl+Shift+O).
The three tabs each hold a different kind of information. Output shows the logs printed by scripts and system messages, Error List shows the errors raised at runtime, and Search_List shows search results. While working, you switch between tabs to check the run state and any problems.
Output tab
The Output tab is where the script's Log() output and system messages accumulate in chronological order. Use it to trace equipment behavior or to confirm that a script flows as intended.
The Clear item in the right-click menu of the list erases all accumulated output. Clearing it before starting a new run lets you check only the output of this run cleanly.
Error List tab
The Error List tab shows the errors raised at runtime, one per row. You can see at a glance which error occurred and when, and select multiple items together to examine them.
The Clear item in the right-click menu of the list empties the error list. The error messages shown follow what is defined in the Error Editor and the Message Editor.
Search_List tab
The Search_List tab shows the results of a search performed with Search (Ctrl+F) on the main window toolbar. When there are no results, the No search results notice is shown.
Search places results in a separate sub-tab per keyword. Searching with a new keyword opens a new tab, up to ten are kept, and searching again with the same keyword refreshes the existing tab's results rather than creating a new one. Each sub-tab's header has the search term and a close (×) button.
Each result is shown in the following columns.
| Column | Content |
|---|---|
Category | The main category the result belongs to. |
Sub | The sub-category. |
Line | The line position of the result. |
Message | The body with the search keyword highlighted. |
Right-clicking the result list opens the following menu.
| Menu | Action |
|---|---|
Close This Tab | Closes the current search tab. |
Close All Tabs | Closes all search tabs. |
Copy | Copies the selected result. |
