How many data points can the output window hold?

Hi NT8, how many data points can the output window hold? I noticed that after a long playback session, it did not have data from the beginning of the output print implying it is deleting data points beyond it's limit. thank you,

Hello Austiner87,

Thank you for your post.

There is a limit to the number of characters/lines that can print to the NinjaScript Output window. If you reach that limit, there will be a message at the first line of the output window that says "You have reached the maximum threshold of the NinjaScript Output window. Some of your output messages have been suppressed."

If you are reaching that limit, I recommend writing your output to a file if you do not want to lose any of that suppressed information. We have a reference sample that demonstrates how to use StreamWriter within a script to write to a text file:

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.
