Exception with "End of stack trace" not showing correctly

I'm using the json parser to parse our error logs. However, the "Exception" grid box only shows part of the stack trace. I assume this is because our stack trace has a "--- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown ---" in it. Is it possible to show the entire stack trace?

Example log message

Thanks for the detailed bug report.

You can change the amount of data shown in the grid. Please see the grid view settings described here:
https://www.logviewplus.com/docs/view.html

Most of the grid settings have application defaults which can be set here:
https://www.logviewplus.com/docs/log_entry_display.html

For large log entries, LogViewPlus will not necessarily show all information in the grid.  We use the grid to summarize information about a log entry so you can decide if you want to know more.  If you select the row, you can always see the full entry in the text area below the grid.

Hope that helps.  Please let me know if you have any further questions or issues.

Thanks,

Toby
