Hello everybody
Currently we disable the mouse before we start any test-case to prevent that a user-interaction disturbs our test runs.
This works perfectly.
Now we tried out Ranorex 8.0 and tested the maintenance-mode. But when the "maintenance-mode window" appears we can't interact with it, because our mouse is disabled. Furthermore, we can't abort the test-run. The only way to get our mouse back is to navigate to the task-manager with the keyboard and kill Ranorex.
The easy solution would be to not disable the mouse, but for "normal" non-maintenance-mode test runs, the disabled mouse comes in very handy.
So what we thought about was to detect if the maintenance-mode is activated before we start the test case and depending on that set the mouse automatically to enabled / disabled.
TLDR: Is there a way to get the info (code-wise) if the maintenance-mode is activated or not?
Greetings
TPeter

Re: Enable mouse on maintenance mode
Hi TPeter,
That's an awesome idea. If you don't mind, I "steal" it and create a User Voice for that.
As far as I know, the product management team of Ranorex handles all feature requests using that platform

Unfortunately I cannot answer your question about the status of this maintenance-mode, but maybe I can find something when going through the API.
If so, I'll let you know
