Menu
I'm trying to send the output to the console (or colouredconsole) ... which I'm hoping would (also?) go to the Visual Studio's Output window for any ASP.NET web site/app/mvc app.
It doesn't by default, but if I change the target to 'file' then it works for sure.
Can NLog output to the Output window for web apps?

To open the Output window, on the menu bar, choose View > Output, or press Ctrl+Alt+O.
The Output window shows the output of the compiler/build system as well as output from debugging sessions. To make the Output window visible, choose View > Output or press [Alt+2] (not Alt+F2!)
To examine the activity logRun Visual Studio with the /Log command line switch to write ActivityLog. xml to disk during your session. After closing Visual Studio, find the activity log in the subfolder for Visual Studio data: %AppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\<version>\ActivityLog.
You can use this configuration file (nlog.config in the app path):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <targets> <target name="debugger" xsi:type="Debugger" layout="${logger}::${message}"/> </targets> <rules> <logger name="*" minlevel="Trace" writeTo="debugger" /> </rules> </nlog> -Scott
