Improvement of the display of error messages
Error message
An error messages is composed by:
- User message (if the case is managed in the code)
- Technical information, in particular, to guide the developer in the code to locate the reason for the message
Separation of user / tech info message
The dialog box returning the error message is composed by:
- A Message tab containing the user message part.
- A Advanced tab containing the technical info.
If the configuration is not managed in the code, in this case there will be no user error message but only a generic message "Failed execution"
| Example of an error message non-managed (so any user message) | |
|---|---|
| “Message” tab | “Advanced” tab |

Warning messages now appear in orange and are also stacked (see next block).

Each warning is:
- editable by clicking on it

Flux3D.log and Flux3D.report files
All operations done in Flux give a result. These results visible in the output window are saved in the Flux3D.log file.
The full details (the contents of the Flux3D.log + the information contained in the "advanced" tabs of the error / warning messages) are present in the Flux3D.report file
Best practice:
Usually, the Flux3D.log file is sent to the Support team when the user encounters a problem. We advice you to send the Flux3D .report to give all details.
