The Debug Dialog

The Debug Dialog contains the Kst message log, and information about loaded data sources. To access the debug dialog, select Help->Debug Kst...

The Build Information tab contains the Kst version number. The Data Sources tab contains a list of the data sources loaded in Kst and the files which they are being used to read. The Log tab contains a list of messages which Kst has recorded, and can be useful for debugging. If an error message has been posted, but not read, then Kst will notify you by placing an excited stop sign in the lower right corner of the main window.

The following lists the different messages that can appear in the debug log, with brief explanations and suggested actions (where appropriate).
