Defines whether the browser activity will appear in the log.
If the value of this option is No upon the initial connection, then there will be no log in the client (it will not be created nor sent to the server).
Note that setting this option to Yes slows down performance since it needs to connect to the server numerous times.

External Log File Name
|
Defines whether the logging information will be sent to an external file.

When running the application from the Studio, such as F7 or Ctrl+F7, the logging is performed for the following scenarios:
-
At least one of the logging options is set to Yes and the External Log File Name property is not blank.
-
At least one of the logging options is set to Yes, and the Activity Monitor view is opened.
When running the application from the Runtime engine, the logging will be performed for the following scenarios:
-
At least one of the logging options is set to Yes, and the External Log File Name property is not blank.
-
At least one of the logging options is set to Yes, a remote Studio engine is attached to the Runtime engine, and the Activity Monitor view is opened on that Studio.
Any changes to the above settings are effective immediately.
The log is unaffected by the Debug Mode option in the Debug menu. Logging information will always be sent to the log, except when the logging is paused.
If there is a valid file name, logging will begin when the Magic xpa runtime is loaded.
