Access last logged value in Chrome console

Question

When I evaluate an expression directly in the Chrome Console like

1 + 1 

then I can reference to the evaluated value using

$_ 

However, I can't access the value with $_, when the value is a result of a console.log, coming from inside of my application, instead of an expression I typed directly into the console.

Is there a way to access the last evaluated expression, regardless where it came from?

Answer 1

After it's been logged to the console, you can right click on it and get an option to Store as global object. Clicking this will define a new variable like 'temp1' which will point to the variable. Here's a video of it in action (not mine).
