Moving the Diagnostics List
You can detach (undock) the Diagnostics List from the main window, and then move the
Diagnostics List anywhere on the screen.
To undock the Diagnostics List, drag the grab bars at the bottom left of the Diagnostics
List. If you can’t see the grab bars, drag the top edge of the Diagnostics List to make it
larger.
To prevent the Diagnostics List from docking automatically while you move it, hold down
the Ctrl key on the keyboard.
Resizing the Diagnostics List
When the Diagnostics List is undocked, you can make it any size you want. For example,
to view more than one message at a time, make the list larger.
To resize the Diagnostics List, drag an edge or corner until the list is the desired size.
