This was actually raised by ​@ctredinnick and I think it makes a lot of sense.

The FME log files in both Flow and Form are great for finding out what went on with a process. But wouldn’t it be great if you could load the Log file into Form against the same workspace and see the numbers coming from each port. Visually, it could help pinpoint issues in the flow of features quickly, subsequent to the run, and would be especially useful for Flow logs.

Yes! Especially for workspaces sent in to support, if you haven’t actually developed the workspace yourself, having to debug the log file can be tricky.

Some kind of debugging mode within Flow would possibly be even better for this ​@todd_davis , unless we needed to do some authoring or customisation at the same time that required Form.  Keep the workflow within the Flow GUI.

Oh yes, it would save so much time compared to tracking down the the feature counts from the log file

Absolutely agree.   I think I asked for this functionality back in 2016.  I think I called it Visualize log.
