[UE5+, Feature Request] Reduce log spam, show viewport size on viewport instead.

Log spam showing any change to the viewport its size. Gets annoying since I resize things a lot whenever the layout feels uncomfortable while the logger is docked to the left so I can review my code. Anyhow, what about putting a checkbox in the viewport toolbar to overlay its size somewhere on a corner or something, instead of logging it?

In the console command input try using
Log [LogCategory] off

In your case:
Log LogViewport off

You can also update DefaultEngine.ini or Engine.ini:
LogViewport=all off

I haven’t tried the DefaultEngine.ini/Engine.ini approach, though. But the console command “Log LogViewport off” works. Perhaps not as nice as what you are suggesting.

Here is more info:

There is a handy free plugin on the market place that I use to help me keep track of useful console commands:
