Details on erros and warnings
Hello,
I am making a model in a STL format. When I run prusa slicer, I see a lot of auto-repaired problems and open edges.
Can we have details on these errors? What are the coordinates of the edges and vertices that have problems?
Thanks,

If this is a feature suggestion then it needs to be made over at PRUSA Slicer GitHub https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort%3Aupdated-desc.
As slicer isn’t a modelling tool I don’t think your chances are high, especially as the 2.4 versions have stopped repairing a lot of things automatically. It’s worth asking though
However if you want a more practical route then install Blender, it’s free and there’s versions for most operating systems, then once installed activate the 3dprint and the stl import tools. That allows you to analyse stl files that are imported and can highlight open edges, non manifold areas etc. it’s also not half bad at auto fixing them but it does allow you to learn what your problem areas are if you are designing your own models.

I think the logic here goes, what's the point of showing you error details if you can't fix them in the slicer anyway. You'll have to go back into your modeling software anyway to fix the problems areas, so it makes sense to delegate the job of showing you the specific problems to that software. At least Prusaslicer lets you know there's something wrong.
