| - | All messages are print to the application console using the given log level. | + | Initial Message, when set, is printed before the contained functors run; Final Message, when set, is printed only after all of them have finished running. Both are printed using the level set in Log Level. |

| + | Using this container with nothing placed inside it is not recommended: with no contained functors to order its execution against, when the message is actually printed relative to the rest of the model becomes unspecified. | ||
| + | |||
| + | This functor has no string-formatting capabilities of its own. To embed a computed value in a message, assemble the string first with [[Create String]] and connect its result into Initial Message or Final Message; some types are also converted to a string automatically when connected directly. | ||
