You can temporarily stop logging messages using the Stop Listening option. When the Diagnostics Console stops listening, it does not log any messages.
Use the Stop Listening option to prevent any additional messages from being added to a log once you've gathered enough information. You can also use it to pause logging while you're setting up a test case.
