Re: Desperately trying to pass data from one iteration to next
hi, I have been in your position and here is the solution that works for me in many different cases: I simply store the value that I need to reuse in a global parameter during run time and re-use when /where needed. 1. Create a global parameter - it does not matter if it has value or not. In some ca...

Re: Best practices
The Power of PopupWatcher class. I want to talk about the power of popup watcher class. As most Ranorex users should know, this is a very powerful option to create and control separate threads that constantly monitor in the background for event in question. The original idea of them is to handle une...

Re: Best practices
HI, honestly I have not dealt yet with updating the CSV at run-time and using the updated column. When I need to store something persistently ONLY during run-time I always use global parameters as they save constants only during run time. When new test run is initiated the global parameter start aga...

Best practices
All, I have been using Ranorex for the past year and would like to share some of my best practices that resulted from that: - always use CSV files for data sources - reason: they provide flexibility in terms of getting updates outside of your project by someone that does not even have access to the ...
Re: Localized
About localization - it is a very good practice to also check if localized text goes out of button text field size and gets cut-off. The way this is done is to find the pairs of attributes that are available for your case but the main idea is to find for example 'textHeight' and 'textWidth' and then...

Re: Tutorial for variables in user code and repository
I think I got it. I was not aware that you can create User Code modules that are a stand alone unit. I thought that the only way user code can be written is in the user code file of a recording.
What are pros and cons of using recording module with user code in it versus a pure user code module?

Probably it is very simple and is considered part of programming 101 but could you explain how to access an object of type Bitmap in a different user code module? My plan ...
