Regarding this scenario: Create view in mobile geodatabase — View name gets cleared when run

The steps in that post produce an error: Parameter is missing or invalid

Problem: The error message disappears after a couple of seconds.

It would be better if the error message persisted, so that we can carefully read it, take a screen shot, or even copy the error text.

Could that behavior be changed?

Thanks.

We have already begun working on updating this message for the next release.

The updated message has a banner that will display over the Run button. It will appear if you try to run a tool with a missing or invalid parameter, and it will update as you resolve the issues.
