Dalvik Debug Monitor not showing all logs

In my Dalvik Debug Monitor new log messages which have different tag than previous log message are displaying after erasing all previous log messages. That means log is clearing itself all the time and only showing a few lines. What will i do to view all Log messages??

This happens a lot to me too. As far as I know there's no easy way around it but have a look at this python script which I modified (for full disclosure this is the original colored logcat script - I changed the formatting and tweaked it a bit)

or you could just use the command line:

adb lolcat

or if you're interested in a specific tag, and using unix (or cygwin as I noticed you're on the PC):

adb lolcat | grep TextToFind

P.S. yes I know I'm using lolcat, instead of logcat - both will work. lolcat is just for the lulz

* EDIT * You can also use logcat filtering to get the data you want from logcat. For example I ususally use this combination:

adb logcat MyAppTag:* *:E

this gives me all the logs which has a tag of MyAppTag and all other error and fatal messages. This is, imo, a better way of doing it than using grep.
