I send my members from filters to the Object Table (Show in Table). When I compile from there, there is a messages drop down and I find my errors in there. Plus, there's the Show Log button.
Hope that helps,
Matt Qualls

Add this to the list:
When a compile fails during the binding step, how about giving us a way to see that in RDi? There is no job log, no errors (other than a generic "failed to compile"). To see anything useful, you need to compile on the green screen.
I did report this, and basically got nothing but excuses as to why it behaved like that.

To the developers of RDi,
For the next release of RDi, it would be nice if you would work on some of the picky little things that kinda work but not really. Here is a partial list:
Source Compare feature - Doesn't always compare nicely, particularly if one source member has a bunch of spaces at the end of lines, and the other does not. Not real sure how that happens, just that it does. And why does the i Projects perspective source compare tool have the ability apply changes from one source to the other, but not the RSE tool? Seems a little silly to me for that feature to be missing from RSE since it is so useful.
Screen/Report designer - I hate to call any DDS keywords new features as there really hasn't been anything added for quite some time, but it would be nice if the Screen/Report designer would support "newer" keywords. Quite a few things work better than they did with CODE, but not. Pushbuttons render as a 2 digit field rather than the pushbutton. Better than CODE that didn't render anything, but still not much help. AFP and IPDS keywords like Barcode and line do not render nicely, and even Font does not render properly (RDi is a GUI, and should be able to render these things). Position would be harder, but just about anything would be nicer than everything being placed at 1,1. And what is with the problems with a horizontal subfile not rendering properly when it is contained in a window. the subfile flows past the edge of the window, out to the edge of the screen.
