Hi, I am not sure if it it a feature, but my debug tab clears itself after a min or so; while it reduces clutter, sometimes it is good to be able to clear manually instead.

Thanks,

The debug buffer is finite and is shared across all tabs.  
So other tabs generating lots of messages will exhaust the debug buffer. Disable the noisy debug nodes on the other tabs.
