How to delete all messages in the message window programmatically?
You can also do what the button in messages notebook does:
FrontEndExecute[
{
FrontEndToken[FrontEnd`MessagesNotebook[], "SelectAll"],
FrontEndToken[FrontEnd`MessagesNotebook[], "Clear"]
}
]
The advantage is that it may not require kernel to run at all because all symbols are known by the front end. So this will work:
Button["test", (*our code*), Evaluator -> None ]
You can obtain the NotebookObject
corresponding to the messages window using MessagesNotebook
, and then delete all the cells using NotebookDelete
:
NotebookDelete @ Cells @ MessagesNotebook[]
