Extended Definition:
1. By default, the Message window only displays error and fatal messages and messages from commands that you execute from the user interface (for example, menus and dialog boxes). You can also display messages that you execute from the command window, Command navigator, and command files. In addition, you can set the severity level of the messages displayed, from informational to fatal messages.
2. You can set the message level displayed for ‘graphics_window’, ‘command_window’ and at the ‘start_up’ as either of the ‘quiet’, ‘brief’ or ‘verbose’. Thus, if the parameter is set to ‘quiet’, no message will appear, and if the parameter is set to ‘verbose’ a detail message will appear.
3. On the other hand, you can the threshold severity or severity to either of the ‘information’, ‘warning’, ‘error’ or ‘fault’. Thus the minimum level for displaying a message will be occurrence of error if the level is set to ‘error’. Elsewise, you can set a message string by the parameter ‘message’. The limit set to information will display messages about what is occurring during a command. Setting the message window to display these types of messages helps you understand what is happening in Adams View but requires no action from you. Warning message will display messages that warn you that something unusual occurred but the operation can continue. You may want to fix or change something to complete the operation without warnings. The error display messages that indicate that the operation cannot be executed. You need to fix or change something to complete the operation. The fatal error or fault displays messages that indicate that a programming error occurred. You should report the message to MSC's Technical Support staff.
