Using the Jade Interpreter Output Viewer

The output from your traced methods (or write instructions) is displayed in the Jade Interpreter Output Viewer until you:

Clear it manually
Call the Application class closeWriteWindow method
Close your current JADE session

The Jade Interpreter Output Viewer provides the:

The text for each write instruction is accumulated and displayed in the Jade Interpreter Output Viewer. The text submitted by each write instruction is added to the end of any existing text on the form and the text box is scrolled to the end of the text to display the most‑recent entries. When the accumulated text exceeds the maximum of 4M bytes of text, truncated to the nearest full line, the oldest write entries are dropped from the display until that size is no longer exceeded.

If more than 4M bytes of text, truncated to the nearest full line, has been written to the viewer, you can display these by using a text editor if you have captured your output to the log file.

When the Jade Interpreter Output Viewer display is static (that is, there no are more write instructions and traced methods occurring), you can perform any available action in the text that is displayed. However, if write instructions continue to be output while you are attempting to interact with the text, there will be issues, as follows.

New write statements add text to the end of the display. The initial text (possibly even all text) in the display can be removed if the maximum text size is exceeded.
Any current selection will be lost and the display is scrolled to the end of the text.

To allow you to access displayed output, you can pause the display update of new write statements. For details, see "Options Menu".
