Logging

ToolboxLogger.Instance filters messages by level and category. The default global level is Warning, for LogSettings and for a new ToolboxLogConfig asset.

`LogCategory`	Content
`General`	Messages that fit no other category. The samples use it.
`DragDrop`	Drag and drop, merge, tear-off. Many messages during pointer movement.
`Window`	Window registration, state, chrome and templates.
`Animation`	Reserved. The runtime does not log in this category today.
`Layout`	Layout calculation and geometry.
`Input`	Input handling and gesture recognition.
`Lifecycle`	Chrome lifecycle: state transitions, initialization, cleanup.

LogLevel values, from least to most output: Disabled, Error, Warning, Info, Debug, Trace.

Configure logging in code:

using UIToolbox.Logging;

public static class LogSetup
{
    public static void Apply()
    {
        var settings = LogSettings.CreateDefault();
        settings.SetCategoryLevel(LogCategory.DragDrop, LogLevel.Debug);
        ToolboxLogger.Initialize(settings);
    }
}

Or create an asset with the menu Assets > Create > UI Toolbox > Log Configuration and pass it to ToolboxLogger.Initialize(ToolboxLogConfig).

LogSettings.CreateDebug() and LogSettings.CreateTrace() are presets. UIToolbox.Utils.LoggingHelper has shortcuts: ConfigureQuietMode, ConfigureDebugMode, EnableCategoryDebugging, ConfigureMergeDebugging.
