box that lets you save a copy of the MessageArea content to a text file.
The Message Area will only display information while running in Debug mode. It does not
display information from other running services, and will not display the log of any process
running in a live configuration (submitted to PlanetPress Workflow Service).
To learn more about debugging a process, refer to "Debugging and Error Handling" on
page55.
The Object Inspector Pane
The Object Inspector displays the properties of the object selected in the Configuration
Components pane (not the Process Area, however). You can edit some of these properties
directly from the Object Inspector, simply by clicking on the property.
