Hi!
Is it possible to show the VM logs from the running machine window (I use Windows as host) ?
I only see the way from the VB manager window:
- (if not running) start Virtualbox to open the Manager window
- right click the wanted VM in the left pane and in the menu select Show Log...
It would be handy to have the Show Log.. menu item in the Machine menu of the running VM window.
Regards,
David

Because the user could open the logs in the VM with "one click", unlike now, when they have to:
- switch to the VirtualBox Manager window (or start it if not running)
- select the desired VM from the list
- then click Show Log in the menu
Like the Settings menu item. It is available both in the Manager and the actual VM window.

Interesting. You can post an enhancement request on the Bugtracker.
