Is it possible to disable the new build logs in 2025r1?
I don’t need them so it’s just something to have to delete after every build.
Thanks
You’ll probably need to file a ticket. There’s plenty of room on the “Building” panel of Settings if you ask me. I’d appreciate this too.

Or just save the log beside the project file where it won’t impact our build and distribution workflows and we can .gitignore it.
Alternatively: Don’t save a file. Use the messages panel in the IDE.
Yeah, I would definitely prefer the messages panel in the IDE.
The most annoying part is that it creates a separate file for each build, but it’s only like 2 lines long. I’m guessing that there is more important info in there if you’re doing notarization and app store uploads via the IDE, but for those of us with established processes for that stuff, it’s just a lot of extra clutter.
Right now I’m woking on an app that utilizes preemptive threads, and those can only be fully tested in built applications, so I’m ending up with lots and lots of logs.

You might be able to use a post-build step to delete it, but I agree that it should be optional, on a per-project basis.

Yeah, for the time being, this will delete the logs on macOS in a post build script.
call DoShellCommand("rm " + CurrentBuildLocation + "/*Build\ Log.txt")

You can also end up with a “*Notarization Log.txt” on macOS if you have that option enabled.
