**How to disable output panel while running app in background**

Dear all,  
for debugging I use trace commands to keep track of what happens, but this is super annoying when trying to run the application in the background as the output window keeps popping up thus obscuring everything else on the screen.  
Is there a way to prevent the output from popping up like that?  
Some setting in the publish menu or other?

PLS  
Advice
