Thank you for a great tool.

The (Windows) GUI shows the error and a CWE number. But those don't seem to be useful in doing inline check suppression. Is there any way to get the error name in the GUI so I can add them as cppcheck-suppress comments in the code?

Never mind, just discovered the preference "Display error Id in column "Id". That looks like what I was looking for. Maybe have that on by default?

Yes maybe. I don't have a very strong opinion. Good that you found the option yourself.
