Hi,

Could it be that the RxPath is wrong, because this method should work without any problems?
Do you get an error message, if yes can you send us the report file?
Can you send us the used RxPath and a Snapshot of such a popup window?

Could you also post the report/log file that is created, please?
Is there any screenshot in the report?
Have you tried swapping the Report.Failure and Report.Screenshot commands?

Report.Screenshot() without an element argument should create a screenshot of the whole desktop and add it to the report.

I tried all of these before post -swapping the Report.Failure and Report.Screenshot commands,Report.Screenshot() without an element argument ...report display as blank, whatever i try before this line of code "Environment.Exit(-1);"
gets ignored.

Hi,

Please answer the questions:

Could you also post the report/log file that is created, please?
Is there any screenshot in the report?

Can you also try to create a new solution which just adds such a screen shots to the report?
Does this properly work?

yes it worked in a new solution that create usercode module---here is the code that worked on new solution-

public class MainEntry
{

public void screenCapture()
{

Report.Screenshot();
}



public MainEntry()
{
// Do not delete - a parameterless constructor is required!
}

[STAThread]

public static void Main(string[] args)
{

Report.SetupDefault();

Report.Screenshot();

}


}
}

Ok here is the class that work as driver --
----

/*****Check for any popup, click OK and terminate the test*********/
Thread dialogWatchers = new Thread(rmaxValidation.WindowsPopUp);
dialogWatchers.IsBackground = true;
dialogWatchers.Start();

//* Enter Cmsn */////
tempCmsn.ClickNewSplit();

----------------------------
--------rmaxValidation.cs-----------------
public void WindowsPopUp()
{

while (true)
{

if(repo.Explorer_ScriptError.ButtonOKInfo.Exists())
{
Report.Failure("Window Popup");
Report.SetupDefault(); //with this line or w/out same result
Report.Screenshot();
Environment.Exit(-1);
}

}}

[omayer]

finally its working by using the following code--

public void WindowsPopUp()
{

while (true)
{

if(repo.Explorer_ScriptError.ButtonOKInfo.Exists())
{

Report.Start();
Report.SetupDefault();
Report.Failure("Windows Popup");
Report.Screenshot();

Environment.Exit(-1);
}

}}

Hi,

We are sorry but we cannot reproduce the issue on one of our machines, can you therefore send us your project per mail or can you give us some more information about your test environment and used Ranorex version?

Isn't it a problem that Reporting from other threads doesn't work?
