Setup OUTPUT panel in SciTE

[mike2003]

I have a couple of problems with this panel. I don't have enough space. I want to see a lot of code and constantly have to resize the panel to see the output info. And two questions.

Can I detach this OUTPUT panel into a separate window on a second monitor?

Or at least change font size? Now the text size of the code and this panel is the same. But the panel doesn't need that much.

Ideally, of course, transfer to a second monitor ) But maybe there are some other interesting solutions to this problem?? To debug code like ConsoleWrite

Not that I know.... I am using the standard SciTE distribution with minimal core source changes specifically for AutoIt3.

This line will change the outputpane to courier new size 8

style.errorlist.32=font:Courier New,size:8,back:#FFFFFF

..or temporary change the fontsize by clicking in the outputpane and do Ctrl+NumMin to make the font smaller.

You could use a logging UDF like Loga. It allows two ways:

1. it print its debug messages into the console, but at the same time into a logfile. Which you could open and watch on your 2nd monitor, preferrably using a tool which constantly displays new lines of the file. I think LogExpert should do the job (untested)
2. it allows to have its own outpout windows, see example 09 of the udf.

Which file? I found 9 with this parameter.

I also found parameter output.magnification=-3 for file SciTEGlobal.properties.

Always use the sciteuser.properties when you want to make this a new personalisatie default.

I'm experimenting with Debug.au3. Can I increase the size of the text GUICtrlSetFont?

#include <Debug.au3>
_DebugSetup("Check Excel", True)
GUICtrlSetFont($__g_hReportEdit_Debug, 14, 400, 0, "Tahoma")
WinMove ($__g_sReportTitle_Debug,"" , 100, 100 , 1000, 500)
_DebugOut("Moved Mouse Down")
