Hi I got an noob question, my logfile is getting clotted with temperatur, pressure, power readings, illuinance sensor reading from xiaomi items, I like to get rid of these ItemStateChangedEvent, I think they are called. At the same time I would like to have the but on the ItemStateChangedEvent for the doors e.g.
So my question is, Is there a way to control the log on thing level or an other way to achive this? here is a apart of my log:

The events.log file is populated by the Event Bus. All state changes take place on the Event Bus. There is no way to selectively turn certain Items on or off. You can only turn on or off the entier events.log.

You would probably be better served paying closer attention to openhab.log and using logging from Rules to track your Items.
