Hi Jean,

i worked hard for you the last two hours. ;-)

the ErrorEvt catches errors only.

Warnings can be catched the same way you do in the ErrorEvt-Handler.

For Debug Messages no events are generated unfortunately.
But: If you use a vtkFileOutputWindow all debug messages (beside error and
warning messages) are written into the logfile as well. So, you could write
your own "file observer" to handle new messages appended to the logfile and
show it in your own window or textcontrol.

Like I said before no events will be generated for debug messages. On which
vtkObject do you call DebugOn()?

I tried everything during the last two hours. There is no way to instantiate
a new vtkOutputWindow and disable it afterwards without criminal hacks. 
But if you instantiate a new vtkOutputWindow and call
vtkOutOputWindow.SetInstance(<your new vtkOutputWindow instance>) the window
will be resizable and don't show the hourglass all the time. A little
progress is better than nothing, isn't it?

Hope that helps a bit.

with kind regards
Jochen

P.S.: Why you did start a new thread on this issue?
