how to set "stdout=true" while doing a webdeploy for asp.net core v3.1 app?

I am publishing an asp.net core v3.1 app in visual studio 2019
since core apps do not create a web.config
webdeploy creates it and publishes its own web.config on every publish

while it does that
it sets the stdout=false and i would like to be true -
anyone know how to control this?
i was toying around with trying to configure something in the .csproj
but never found the correct combination

heres what the published web.config looks like:

<aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\myproj.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="false" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" hostingModel="InProcess" />

and of course heres what i want it to look like:

<aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\myproj.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="true" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" hostingModel="InProcess" />

You can add a web.config to your poject by right click the project, add=>newItem=>Web=>Web Configuration File.And then you can set stdoutLogEnabled in it.

Example(pay attention you need to add hostingModel="inprocess"to web.config):

<system.webServer>
    <handlers>
      <remove name="aspNetCore"/>
      <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModule" resourceType="Unspecified"/>
    </handlers>
    <aspNetCore processPath="%LAUNCHER_PATH%" arguments="%LAUNCHER_ARGS%" stdoutLogEnabled="true" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" hostingModel="InProcess"/>
  </system.webServer>

And here is the published web.config:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
      <handlers>
        <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
      </handlers>
      <aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\case1(5-26).dll" stdoutLogEnabled="true" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" hostingModel="inprocess" />
    </system.webServer>
  </location>
</configuration>
