3. The search bar at the top of the logcat view can be used to quickly search for messages matching a pattern. By default, the search is performed in the Text field of the log message. You can specify a different field to search by prefixing your search term with “pid:”, “app:”, or “tag:”. e.g: pid:225
4. One common issue we see is that developers new to Android do not know about logcat, and hence might spend a lot of time debugging issues when a relevant error message might have appeared in logcat. To help such users, ADT now automatically monitors the logcat stream when you run an application from Eclipse, and if there are any error messages that originate from your application, it will bring the logcat viewer to the foreground.
This update should fix a number of bugs including:
Issue18272- Logcat tab in Eclipse will not “tail” the end of the buffer
Issue18205- ADB logcat (ADT) does not offer wrapping for the log output. The logcat view still does not offer full wrapping, but we’ve added a tooltip that should show the complete log whenever you hover over the corresponding line.
Issue2752- Eclipse plugin logcat window blinks a few lines of text at a time.
