Results View

The Results view displays the messages generated as a result of user actions such as validations, transformations, search operations, and others. Each message is a link to the location related to the event that triggered the message. Double-clicking a message opens the file containing the location and positions the cursor at the location offset. The Results view is automatically opened when certain actions generate result messages. By default, the view normally opens at the bottom of the editor, but it is dockable, so it can be moved to another UI location alongside other side views.

The actions that contribute messages to this view include:
