Searching for text in the log file

To search for a specific text occuring in the log file, you can use the  Search field at the top right of the document.

 

Search can be done either from the start of the document or from the end of the log file. By default searches begin from the first line. To toggle the search direction, click on the                        icon in the footer. When the label reads ‘Backward’, the searches are done from the last line and proceed backwards.

 

The menu items 'Find' (Cmd+F), 'Find Next (Cmd+G)' (or Enter when focus is in the Search field) can be used to set focus on the Search field to begin the search and find the next occurrence of the search text respectively.

Note: If a search operation takes a while, a progress indicator is shown in the toolbar next to the search window.

Canceling a search operation:

 

To cancel a search operation that is in progress, just clear the search text in the search field. If the search text is changed while a search is in progress, the current search operation will be canceled and a new one will be started.
