    I guess the screenshots did not work. How do I send a screenshot?

    click the button above the editor that looks like the sun over the mountain, with top right corner folded over

        @fsne04 open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard, select the tab labeled ‘console’ and scroll up…

        u can also filter messages by module, by placing a unique part of the module name (cast) in the filter field

          @sdetweil Hi Sam,
          Thank you for the response, but I am not sure what you are asking me to do. Ctl + Shift+i on the Pi4 or on my Mac (where I am writing this)? Also, I don’t know what palancing is, or the last 4 words of your post. Sorry…
          Actually, just figured out the last 4… in the filter field (duh)… but which filter field?
          Oh and I tried Ctl Shift i on both Pi and Mac, neither one did something. Again sorry about the ignorance…

            @fsne04 pi of course, where MM is, all keys at the same time
            and the ‘filter’ field is the field labeled ‘filter’ in the debug screen

                This is my first time in a forum like this and I don’t actually know how to start a new topic…
                I tried ctl+shft+i on the Raspbian desktop, in the MM config file, in the File Manager and in Chromium, all without any response. I can’t get to the place you have in your screenshot.
