Impossible to copy output in the Serial Monitor if constantly written #48

Open lorenzos opened 6 years ago

lorenzos commented 6 years ago

When the Serial Monitor tab continuously outputs incoming data (like for some quick periodical process), it's impossible to select and copy text. As soon as you select the text, it is overwritten with the incoming one. It'll be great to have a button in the bottom right corner to "suspend" monitoring, or something like that.

Thanks.

Implementing a pause button would mean having a buffer document to catch the serial output when it's not updating the displayed copy. Perhaps this can be accomplished without the buffer by using a write only window or something like console-panel.
