Input filtering on the fly

[diskostu]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I want to be able to filter an existing console output on the fly to only see lines with matching strings.

Describe the solution you'd like The solution could be similar to the Logcat filtering in Android Studio. Often, I'm looking for certain strings in the console output. I can use "Strg +F" to "find" Strings, but still, the console is cluttered. It would be better to only see the lines with the matching String. Android Studio:

Describe alternatives you've considered Strg + F, but as described above, it could be done better.

Bonus: filtering by log level, on the fly, would be totally awesome. 😀

I kinda replicate that in the Grep subtab, having this in the main tab is impossible to do in a plugin, JetBrains would need to implement it.

What is the Grep subtab?Can't find anything like this.

Ah! Found it. Cool, thanks!

A follow up question: is it possible to have more than 1 Grep subtab? Would be super neat.

[krasa]

sure, but if you want to see more than one at the same time as a split view, that's a different question

[diskostu]

Not necessarily; having multiple subtabs is enough for me. But I cannot find how to add another subtab. Can you tell me how to do this?

the same way as the first one https://github.com/krasa/GrepConsole/blob/master/screenshotGrepSubConsole.png
