Is logcat broken for anyone in AS Giraffe? especially Soft-wrap.
m
What do you mean by "broken"? It seems impossible to turn off soft-wrap now, which is a nuisance, but not really "broken".
m
I'm able to toggle the soft-wrap, but the problem is - even after turning the soft-wrap on, I'm seeing logs going outside the screen horizontally. Also, when I try to copy any multiline log, it contains "\n" in between.
m
It seems we're seeing very different effects... interesting.
m
I'm on Mac OS btw.
m
I haven't run the Mac version yet, I'm seeing these effects on Linux
m
Here's how it's behaving right now...

That's funny! That's more like what I want (to get like it was before), but I can't get anything but soft-wrap, no horizontal scroll bar, or need for it 😕

Logcat hasn't worked for me very well. I'm using Hedgehog and it isn't bad there. I have to restart AS (and sometimes having other IDE's open causes conflicts)
m
Nice to know there's hope for the future 🙂 It's a nuisance rather than a problem here, not enough to outweigh its usefulness. It would be nice to be able to clear it without it crashing. That happened all the time in Flamingo. I haven't been brave (aka "bothered") enough to try it on Giraffe.

I tend to just use a terminal window (iTerm) to display my logcat as I can find more info there
m
I find the colours (recently introduced) very helpful, and pretty. I'm very shallow 😄

I will say that Hedgehog has a folding feature that allows you to fold down to 1 line repeating/annoying messages
