Toggling output pane:

Post by mikey »

Initially I had codelite set up so that the output pane remained visible after a build completed, even without errors or warnings. Then I changed it somehow, so that if there were no errors or warnings it would automatically close.

Later I discovered that if there were linker/make errors, the output pane would close and I'd try to run and get an error message that there was no exe.

So, I'd rather just have the outpane pane remain open after a build all the time. How do I set this?

(Running codelite 5.2 under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS)

Thanks

Settings->Build Settings...-> Build output Appearence
CheckBox: Automaticlly hide the build pane when there are neither errors nor warnings

For the linker errors, you may add missing patterns in
Settings->Build Settings...->Compilers -> [gnu g++] -> Patterns to let Codelite recognizes the error.

That's a great tip I didn't know about, thanks!

Eran - may I suggest you add this to the tips & tricks section? I often find myself fighting for screen real-estate, so any related ticks would be very very welcome.

cheers,
