The old App Engine console is gone (sadness). The new logs viewer has improved a lot, but it's still frustrating compared to the old viewer.
Here are a few things which really bug me, I wonder if anyone has come up with work-arounds or solutions: 1) Collapse the metadata block [part in curly braces] In the expanded view, every log shows the expanded metadata block in curly braces first. This consumes massive chunks of my screen real estate, while containing information that is mostly irrelevant most of the time. I'd like this block to be collapsed, so I can just see the info/warning/error messages that contain the useful information most of the time. That would allow me to much more quickly browse the logs and see useful information. 2) Disable auto-update on scroll Generally I want to work with a block of logs for a while when diagnosing a problem. I find the auto-refresh on scroll unhelpful. As I scroll around new logs get loaded and it's easy to lose my place. The old paged view was much more practical. Is there a way to disable this? Hopefully some people have work arounds, I really feel like I have no idea what's going on in my app any more now that we're forced to use the new viewer. Small UI differences have a big impact on usability. Colour scheme is also bad, but I have no hope of Google improving that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
