Android Studio Logcat Search

Question

I am facing a strange problem with android studio. In logcat monitor, there is not much space for search box. I am not able to find out any option to make it larger.

is there any way to make this larger?

Answer 1

Actually the problem is with the device name, which is too long and due to this it squeezes the Logcat search. So to the solution I got for this name issue is to change the device name (whether its Genymotion or AVD). So to change your device name follow below steps :

For AVD : Go to Tools --> Android --> AVD Manager --> Select your device and then change the device name to shorter one.

For Genymotion : Open you VirtualBox --> Select your device and then Click on Settings --> Change the name to shorter one.

And other option is Right click on Logcat tab and then enable Floating mode. Then just resize the floating window so that the Logcat search can expand.

Edit: You can also use CTRL+F to filter logcat. It will open new search bar and then you can try on that.

For quickly search, use universal key combination CTRL+F.
