change rviz log level
in rqt_logger_level
, I see an rviz node, but there are no loggers within. Ideally I'm looking for a command-line switch that makes rviz spit out debug messages to the console.
I also tried adding the line log4j.logger.ros.rviz=DEBUG
to the file pointed to by ROSCONSOLE_CONFIG_FILE
, which has worked for nodes I launch, but not for rviz.
I think the issue is that rviz starts as an "anonymous" node, meaning it doesn't name collide with other "rviz" nodes. This is accomplished by changing the node name to
rviz_<random hexidecimal numbers>
. Open an issue against rviz, it might be possible to add an option to rviz to make it happen.
