Running diagnostics in WinStudio

You can debug a form's operation by using the form in run mode, capturing information about its operation, and then analyzing the information.

To run diagnostics in this way, use this procedure:

  1. Select the types of diagnostic information you want to capture:
    1. From the View menu, select Settings.
    2. Select the Diagnostics tab.
    3. In the General section, select Enable.
    4. Select the diagnostic message types that are appropriate to your debugging task.
    5. Close or minimize the Settings dialog box.
  2. Capture and view the diagnostic information:
    1. From the View menu, select Diagnostics.
    2. In Runtime Mode, perform the operations that you want to test.
    3. Examine the messages in the Diagnostics pane.
Note: In the Diagnostics pane, you can start and stop the collection of messages, save messages to a file, clear the log, filter messages, and find values in messages. See the help for the Diagnostics window.
