How do I look at console?

by Tyler Slabinski · in Artist Corner · 08/11/2007 (2:35 am) · 8 replies

This may sound dumb because I never needed to use the console before but, how do I view the console? I tried exporting a dragon-like mesh with a few animations but it told me to check the console. Now someone told me that it comes up during start-up, but I am yet to find it. Can someone tell me how to view the console?

If you are on Windows, you should find it minimized once you start Blender.

Not Windows. Mac.

I don't know Macs but maybe start Blender from a console and the output should appear there.

Also I'm sure if you Google your Mac specific problem someone will have an answer somewhere.

Umm... That's what I need help with. Getting the console open. I already tried google.

In Mac, you should use the System console app. It is usually at the Utilities folder, inside the Aplications one.

Well I'm more of a "Text Edit" person then a "ScriptEdit" person but I guess theres not much different.

Weird, now there doesn't seem to be an exporting problem.
