Message pane

The tabbed message pane appears in the lower part of the AppBrowser below the structure and content panes. The message pane displays various processes, including:

When compiling, if your code has errors when you compile, a Compile page appears in the message pane listing the errors or warnings. To go to the line of code with the error, click the error message. As you debug your code, the debugger appears in the message pane.

As you run an application, the message pane displays a tab with the name of the active process. For more information, see the status bar.

When debugging, the debugger user interface and debugging process are in the message pane.

Output from the selected web server is also displayed in the message pane.

The message pane can also display the results of a search for all instances of a specified expression. For example, choose Search|Find, specify a search string, and click the Find All button. All strings in the current file that match the search string appear in the message pane on a Search Results page. Click a string on the Search Results page to go its instance in the file.

The Search Results tab will also display the results of a search for all references to a specified symbol. For example, select a symbol in the editor, right-click, and choose Find References. All references to that symbol are displayed on the Search Results page.

To clear messages, to remove a tab that presents a page in the message pane, or to hide the message pane, right-click an empty area of the message pane or the tab and choose the appropriate menu command.
