Provide a 'Collapse All' menu entry for the Build Output window

Status: New

When compiling projects with several files the build output window sometimes is flooded with warning and error messages. Typically I focus on one file at a time and then have to scroll through this long list searching for the file of interest. In such a situation I would consider it useful having an additional menu entry in the right click menu (shown below) such as 'Collapse All', reducing the many lines in the build output window to one line per file, greatly simplifying the search for a specific file.build.png

 

Thanks!

This could be a good addition!

At present I usually do:

  • click on the Build Output window
  • Press Ctrl-Home to go top
  • Press Down key and Left key to collapse the first file in the list
  • Repeat previous step for every file compiled

Not so easy and fast!



Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
