Bolding Text in Ranorex Reports

Post by Pixi6s » Thu Apr 26, 2012 8:46 pm

Hello,

I was curious if I could bold and possibly change the color of text in the Ranorex log, without just modifying the XML afterward if possible. Is there a parameter I could pass in with the Ranorex.Log call that would add any distinction (besides pass or fail)?

Thanks
Sierra

You can use the Report.LogHtml method to log text including HTML tags. Just make sure that plain text you want to log does not contain any forbidden characters like '<' or '>'.

Hi,

I want just a part of the reported text to be bolded:

Until now I just use Report.Info:

Report.Info("Total number of objects in Table " & ThTag.Item(0).InnerText & ":" & CountObj)

What I would like to have is, that the middle part in the Ranorex Report is depicted as bolded:

Report.Info("Total number of objects in Table " & ThTag.Item(0).InnerText & ":" & CountObj)

How does this work?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Did you already try what Alex suggested (using the Report.LogHtml)?

Yes I tried to use Report.LogHtml but could not get it working.

Could you please give me an example how to use LogHtml?

Hi,

Okay, here is a sample code, it shows how it could work for you:
Report.LogHtml(ReportLevel.Info,"User","<p>Total number of objects in Table: <span style='font-weight:bold'>"+yourElement.InnerText.ToString()+"</span></p>");
