[Gmsh] Cannot find gmsh log

Thank you for the reply.

I have now used the "Save" button, but the log file contains only the
contents of the message window, without additional details.
For my geometry, I get

Error   : 3 identical points in Qtest

during the 2D meshing, and

Error   : Self intersecting surface mesh, computing intersections (this
could take a while)
Error   : Surface mesh is wrong, cannot do the 3D mesh

for the 3D meshing. Each time I am told to "Check the full log for
details". But where is it?

How can I find out where exactly the problem is?

Thank you and best regards,

Matthias
