How do I hide this message in the Flutter console - ViewPostIme pointer 0

Question

Everytime I tap the screen of my device, I see this message in the Flutter console

D/ViewRootImpl@38eee14[MainActivity]( 7994): ViewPostIme pointer 0

followed by

D/ViewRootImpl@38eee14[MainActivity]( 7994): ViewPostIme pointer 1

These messages crowd the console and get in the way of reading actual important logs, so is there a way to get rid of them?

Answer 1

In VS Code, you can apply this search filter in the Debug Console:

!ViewPostIme

You can add more filters seperated by a comma:

!ViewPostIme,!ViewRootImpl

The '!' before a phrase excludes logs where the phrase occurs.

Example:

Answer 2

I did it with

flutter run | grep -v "D/ViewRootImpl"

Answer 3

Late to the party, but for me the previous answers didn't work.

In Android Studio's Console, there is an option "Fold lines like this" to fold (hide) lines based on a pattern. Just right-click on any line in the Console...

That worked for me! That way I was also able to Debug my app from Android Studio by using Run 'main.dart' (I prefer that) instead of Command Line.

In your case, you could just add "D/" (or "D/ViewRootImpl") there. Also it is possible to use:

• V/ (Verbose)
• D/ (Debug)
• I/ (Information)
• W/ (Warning)
• E/ (Error)
• A/ (Assert)

Still to see only Flutter logs, also add "I/flutter" and "E/flutter" to the exceptions.

You can always use:

flutter logs

instead.

Alternatively, if your using IntelliJ/ Android Studio, see: Flutter disable system debug messages in Run Tab
