Messages being sent to Debug Output window

https://www.nevron.com/Forum/Topic10709.aspx

The following messages are being sent to the Debug Output window when NChartControl.Settings.RenderSurface = Window:

Mapping [Arial] to [Arial]
Unkonwn GDEF table format
Mapping [Times New Roman] to [Times New Roman]
Unkonwn GDEF table format
Mouse Leave
Mouse Leave
Mouse Leave
…

Is there any way to prevent these messages from being sent?

Hi Lance,

We've removed the mouse leave message - the other ones are from the text processing system and generally help you determine whether something is wrong with text fallback etc. so we'll probably keep them - they show up only once per font load so they should not be problem in general.

Can you please prevent all messages from being sent to the Debug Output window by default or at least provide an option to disable them?  It seems much more appropriate to allow developers to enable the messages if desired.

Any unnecessary text in the Debug Output window can make it more difficult to analyze outputs, especially when you need to compare text from several different scenarios.

Thank you.

I need to follow up because I rely on the Output window when debugging my app so the messages that Nevron is sending to the Output window are a major nuisance.

Here's an example of what my Output window looks like after I launch my app using the most recent build (16.5.9.12).  No other 3rd party component that I've used sends messages to the Output window.  Please consider making that your practice as well.

Can you please tell me how to prevent these messages?

Hi Lance,

We just uploaded a new SP that removes those messages from the output window...
By Lance Levendowski - Monday, May 16, 2016

I tested build 16.5.16.12 and I no longer see any messages being sent to the output window.

Thank you for the quick SP, that is a big help!
