I have a problem with the build log in one of my build scripts.
As you can see in Screenshot 1 I have several Set Variable Actions. Each of them has a different Action description and sets different variables. When running the script the build log does not print the descriptions correctly. You can see in the build log window of the screenshot that instead "Set Variable ME_PATHSetupScript to [... ]" "Set Variable ME_PATHArchiv to [... ]" is printed. Also the next two variables are printed with the same wrong description.
I have included the details of the first action script as screenshot 2 and 3 for your reference.
Sorry it’s taken us a few days to get back to you.
My guess is that the ActionLogTitle property for an action is messed up. This happens very occasionally.
Actions actually have a property called ActionLogTitle which complements the Description property. You can override it (normally via script, at runtime) to change the action title which is written to the log, independently of the description.
Sometimes it gets set to an existing description value. It may be a bug, or it may be a result of accidentally clicking on the item and editing it in the IDE. It doesn’t seem to happen very often, and we haven’t found a way to reproduce it.
To fix it, select the action(s), focus the Action Inspector tab in the IDE, find the field “ActionLogTitle” and delete the contents. The contents will actually reappear, matching the description, but that’s OK (it’s been reset “under the hood”).

PS It just occurred to me that having the ActionLogTitle match the description even when the value is reset fairly confusing. I’ll see if we can change it so it shows up blank when reset.
