Add option to display message log #453

Open tribbloid opened 6 years ago

tribbloid commented 6 years ago

I always get the error message:

Sync error. See message log for details

however the message log is not available anywhere, can you add the option to open it or open the directory that contains it?

You did not write, which nixnote version you used. In case you used original v2.0, then there is a rudimentary log viewer in menu Help/Message Log.

If you used new version v2.1 (and I suggest doing that), then I written a wiki article how to find the log file and how to look at it. In v2.1 I removed the old log viewer, as it did not work well in some cases (e.g. when log file was a bit bigger). My opinion is, its better to use a good dedicated tool to look at logs e.g. glogg then to use a suboptimal built in tool.

If you can't find the sync problem yourself, you may want to post full log contents.
