By default, log contents are displayed formatted in HTML (as in above screenshot). Some content is color coded, to indicate different types of log entries, such as errors, warnings and so on. Clicking on one of the **Trim to last x entries **links will display only the last x number of entries.
 
Logs can also be displayed as plain text by clicking on any of the **(RAW)** links. Clicking one of these links will display log content trimmed to the last x entries, where x represents the number of log entry lines.

The **Filter level** dropdown lets you narrow your view to only the message type(s) you specify. For example, choosing //Warning// will display only Warning messages.

Words that match your entry will be highlighted in yellow.
 
If you click any line in the log displayed in HTML, you'll see an orange box to the left of the **Refresh Every** dropdown menu stating: "Highlighted row copied to clipboard". This is useful when searching the Web for the event, or when requesting help somewhere on the Tomato forum or elsewhere.

The value selected in the **Refresh Every** dropdown specifies how often FreshTomato automatically refreshes the main Logs screen. The default setting refreshes them once every second. Clicking on **Refresh** forces a display refresh, even between automatic refresh periods.
