I try to compile a project with Arduino IDE 2.2.1 and from time to time I create code which throws lots of errors. Like template stuff or in case of a unfitting platform (I am trying to adapt some stuff, so this is expected). The window only shows the last lines of the error. This way I can not see if there is a message which leads to all the stuff going wrong afterwards.
How can I force the output to show me the beginning of the messages. I'd like to increase the buffer of the window or whatever... any ideas?
Thank, you. I can scroll up but not enough. On a terminal window I'd just increase the buffer, but in the settings there is no option for that.
I would call the compiler manually but I hope I don't need to resolve all the dependency by hand before doing this. So I hope to just set a secret value in a hidden config file or something like this. I'm on a Ubuntu 20 LTS by the way.
Press the Ctrl+Shift+P keyboard shortcut (Command+Shift+P for macOS users) to open the "Command Palette".
A menu will appear on the editor toolbar:
Select the "Preferences: Open Settings (UI)" command from the menu. ⓘ You can scroll down through the list of commands to find it or type the name in the field.
A "Preferences" tab will open in the Arduino IDE main panel.
Type output.maxChannelHistory in the "Search Settings" field of the "Preferences" tab.
Adjust the value in the field under the "Output: Max Channel History" setting according to your preferences.
It works!
