Logcat won't show up - android

I am somewhat new to android and I am setting up my view perspectives (that i am fairly anal about). I want to have logcat showing on my normal editing perspective.
But I go into Window>Show View>Other Views.. select android and logcat. And the window does not show up. Sometimes it grayed out.
If I switch to the DDMS perspective it shows up just fine.
What am I doing wrong?
thanks!

Try the following in eclipse.
Windows->close all Perspective
Windows->Open perspective->Java EE
Window->show view->other->Android->LogCat

to solve the problem reset the setting by following this print screen on right corner java->reset will reset the settings
than run your app and console and logcat will apear

First of all check if adb logcat is working as in some cases logging is disabled with kernel options by default (on the device).

I had a similar issue but it had to do with my page not updating. I had a shortcut bar with Logcat(Depreciated) and when I added Logcat View it would not update the shortcut bar. I had to move the bar and then it updated the icons.
TL;DR - Try moving shortcut bars around

Eclipse buttons like Step in, Step out, resume etc.. not working

I am debugging my code but the Debug tools are not clickable (i.e Step in , Step out , resume etc).I might have changed the settings accidently , but I dont know where to reset it .
I am new to use Eclipse and android , Please help me
In the "Debug" perspective, there is a "Debug" view which shows the threads of the application being debugged:
There's a little menu in the top right corner, with an option "Show Debug Toolbar". Select that, et voilá:
Sometimes it helps to clean the eclipse workspace - just start eclipse with -clean and the debug buttons work again.
Window -> open perspective -> Debug. There you go.
Also it will normally open by itself when you run the project in debug mode. You do that by clicking F11 or clicking on the bug/insect icon to the left of the run (play) button in the navigation bar you provided screenshot off.
If any of the watch expressions takes too long to evaluate, those mentioned buttons will appear to be grayed out during the evaluation. In such case removing all watch expressions will help.
You may see that your breakpoints symbols are double lines instead of dots.
Click:
Run > Skip All Breakpoints
After this you will see that the breakpoints icons are back to normal and your problem is resolved.

Additional Emulator Command Line Options doesnt appear to be on my Eclipse

Hi I dont have Additional Emulator Command Line Options textbox on my Eclipse and I have to give some parameters from that textbox but it is not there on Run Configuration ->Target is there any other way how can i give those parameters?
Thanx,
I know this is the second similiar post of me, but i thought the previous post i made no one is looking at in.
Are you sure it's not just hidden because your window is too small? There is an outer scroll bar on the very right - try dragging it down, then the text box should appear below disable boot animation

How to get LogCat to be "sticky" at Debug time

When I flip into that alternate reality known as Debug time (the Debug Perspective of Eclipse becomes active), I want LogCat to always be there; it's not, and I have to open it manually/explicitly each time. Can I "train it" to always be there when Debug time rolls around?
In the lower left corner, there should be an icon that shows show view as a fast view when you hover over it, click it then LogCat and dock it where you want. That works on my Galileo version's Debog perspective. If that's what you're doing and it still doesn't stay, try running eclipse in as administrator.
I had the same problem. The answer , for me, was that all the items in the icon view at the bottom of the window occupy the same window. On the left side of the row of icons is one that looks like a couple of windows. Click on that and it restores the window to be fixed.
Hope this helps

Android avd is off-screen

When I run my Android app in Eclipse I can see the emulator on the toolbar but the window appears to be off the screen. Clicking on the icon in the toolbar makes it flash in or out from the right but I cannot see it.
I have had this problem before but I cannot remember how I resolved it.
You could try this.
or
(Windows 7 only)
Hover over the window icon in the task bar so that the preview appears, right click on the preview and select "move." You should then be able to move the window with the arrow keys. You may have to hold down the arrow key for what seems to be a very long time.
As dell116 said:
Hover over the window icon in the task bar so that the preview
appears, right click on the preview and select "move." You should then
be able to move the window with the arrow keys.
But as soon as you have used one of the arrow keys, then move the mouse, and... voilĂ , the window turns up in front of us, just following the mouse movements. Place the window where you want and click the mouse's left button to release it.
None of the tricks here worked for me. What I had to do was in Windows right click background (desktop) select screen resolution. From there change the resolution to a smaller resolution. The window provided me with the window bar that was cut off, simply drag like normal. After I got it where I got it where I wanted it, I just changed the resolution back.
You can also right click on taskbar->properties change Taskbar location on screen to something else, Apply, and then you can set it back this will put your windows on screen.
Another one is right clicking on the taskbar->Cascade windows - this will put every window together in cascading order which is annoying but it does guarantee all windows will go on the screen.
In Windows 10,I faced the same problem. My solution is like that;
Start Android Studio
Select the Android Studio from ALT+TAB Menu(If'nothing happens,just relax :) )
Now press ALT + Space combination
Click Maximize
Now you may use the ide :)))
I faced the exact same problem. I tried the solutions suggested by Daniel and dell116. At first it did not work as the "Move" option seems to be disabled. However, during my final attempt it worked. I found out that you can only use this method only when the OS is starting up (i.e. when it is showing the android logo).
Good news is that after doing this once, it will stay in the desired position for future runs.

Eclipse DDMS window not showing any thing +android

my Eclipse DDms window not showing anything(empty logcat,empty file explore... etc) while running my app in emulator. Sometime it works if i restart eclipse but not all time. why such type of hanging...
Even i face the same problem number of times. What i use to do is go to DDMS and click on the emulator name which is displayed in left side of the window under title "Name" in the Devices-view. Now Logcat will begin to display sequence of events. If this doesn't works then reset adb by clicking the down arrow in the left side of the DDMS window under the title "Devices". Hope this solves your problem
I had this problem today. TryWindow > Reset Perspective like this:
