Custom monitor (log) fields

Please, add user-populated rows in the monitor (and log). From variables or something else.

Example: I have one workflow for many sources (10-20... much more), as subfolders. After converting, files delivering to other folders with same names, as source folders (%s_original_path~n% is a great idea!). Then other software rewraping them, and publishing to Avid Interplay.
In monitor, I can't see source folder of incoming files and don't know who send them.

Or, showing original video codec in log, video resolution, media length, something else useful...


Thank you for great software and support :)

I'll take a look at your request but nothing is guaranteed. Meanwhile, you can populate the %s_success% variable with your own data at the end of a workflow. That way you will have a kind of "custom" field. Please try it and see if it's usable.

Of course, it isn't critical ability for our (and, I think, for any other) production. Thank you for answer and usage hint. It works as expected.
