Plug-in Progress View
Outlined below are the elements of Plug-in Progress View.
- The Progress Window displays important messages from the plug-in. This window gives an indication of progress, warnings, errors, and general information. The progress window is divided into three main sections: time, message, and plug-in.
- The time the message was recorded.
- A general message, error, or warning written by the plug-in.
- The plug-in that wrote the message.
- An icon will be displayed in this column to indicate special messages such as warnings, errors, and debug statements. No special messages were displayed in this particular image indicating that all messages are informational.
There are four types of messages displayed in the Plug-in Progress Window:
Success messages are the most common type of message. A success message has no special icon; it merely informs you that some sub-task of the plug-in finished successfully. These messages also provide needed information, such as the location of an output file.
Warning messages are indicated with the 
icon, and are intended to inform you if something unexpected happened. For example, if no data was found in an input file.
Error messages are indicated with the 
icon, and tell you that a problem has occurred with the plug-in and execution cannot continue. Please check our Troubleshooting page for solutions to common error messages. If you cannot resolve the error, and wish to troubleshoot further, you should send the error message to the plug-in's author.
Debug messages are indicated with the 
icon. Debug messages are often inserted by developers into their
plug-ins to help them isolate problems.
Changing the verbosity levels
You can specify which messages you would like to receive under 'Automation'->'Verbosity'.
'Normal', the default setting, will display all success, warning, and error messages. 'Debug' will display all messages.
All messages are recorded to a file located at C:\documents and settings\all users\chameleonLog.log regardless of the verbosity level selected.
