Output Window

The Output window is, by default, beneath the Workspace window above the
Status Bar. The Output window is visible when the View menu's Output
command is active (denoted by a check mark); it is hidden when the Output
command is not active. The Output window is also visible when you execute the
Program menu’s Build command.

The Output window describes the progress of the current (or most recent) Build
command. If a Build succeeds, the Output window displays the message Build
completed successfully!. If a Build fails, the Output window displays the message
Build failed. along with an fault message describing the cause of the failure.
Ultraware software removes any pre-existing executable program (.exe.) file,
bearing the project name, if a Build fails.

When a Build fails, double-click the Output window fault message with the this
format.

<Filename>:<Line number>:<fault or warning message>

This will open the associated source or header file and position the cursor at the
line referenced by the fault or warning message.

You can resize and move the Output window in several ways.

In its default state (attached to the interface) you can double-click the title
bar to detach the Output window from the interface.

Once detached, the Output window possesses all the properties of any
window. It can be resized or moved entirely outside the interface.

To return the Output window to its default position, double-click the title
bar.

You can copy text in the Output window. However, you cannot type text into the
Output window.
