As a Roblox developer, it is currently difficult to read through your output log if there’s lots of information being output. Whenever a new message/error/warning is sent to the output log in studio, it scrolls all the way to the bottom of the log forcing you to relocate the information you were just looking at. You can pause the play session, however, it would be easier if there was an option to disable autoscrolling by right-clicking the console widget and then selecting an option called “Lock console” or “Disable autoscroll”. This would speed up the process of debugging.
I would like to have this too, but I’m not sure if it already exists.
I checked under File>Settings>Studio>Output
I believe it would be a straightforward addition if you where to consider adding this option. It can be frustrating to be trying to read through the output and then have an auto-update or a sound loading error happen, causing the output window to scroll to the bottom instantly. (lots of loading errors can occur if you’re editing a local file) Maybe call it “Disable Auto-Scroll”, or something of the sort.
