How to filter android logcat by exact word and space between words?

for example if I have

private String TAG ="Preview"; 
......
Log.d(TAG,"Preview Start");

and Set logcat filter to Preview then all logs contain Preview will come up "DrawPreview" "ActivityPreview" etc.What I want is just "Preview"

another case is when I have space in the TAG

    private String TAG ="Main Activity"; 
    ......
    Log.d(TAG,"Main Activity Start");

Logcat filter only recongnise the first word, other stuff after space is ignored.

Enter this as the logcat filter in the "Log Tag" field, make sure Regex is checked

^Main\WActivity$

That will match "Main Activity" and only that tag.

You Need to Add the Unique Tags it may help you find the exact search

For Example, Refer to this one,

int random = new Random().nextInt(10)+1;
        Log.d("'Preview'", "Dice: "+random);
        Log.d("DrawPreview", "Dice: "+random);
        Log.d("ActivityPreview", "Dice: "+random);

then search debug 'preview'

you will find the extact what you need.

To match exact word you should use pattern

^EXACT_WORLD_TO_MATCH$

in the logcat filter

I still dont know how to include space between them.
