Some text instruction to a test?

Post by fve »

Hi

I think, you may use "Comment" input box in test properties window.
Quote from the manual: http://www.ks-soft.net/hostmon.eng/mfra ... htm#Dialog
=============================
Comment
Any comments those make sense to you. You can specify one-line comment directly in the Test Properties dialog or press button to bring-up popup dialog for entering multi-line comments. In the status bar, in reports, and in the Test Detail Area HostMonitor will display only 1st comment line. However using macro variables (%TaskComment%, %CommentLine1%, %CommentLine2%, etc) you can access whole comment or any of its lines.
=============================

You may enable "Comment" column in "Options" -> "Columns" tab in order to show comment in main window.

Hi

Not exactly what i want.
Do you know HP-OpenView? I know HM is not HPOV but there are a input window, real text frame where it's possible to enter some text and link and so on...

In the test_item it's now possible to Right_Click and use drop down list (you have the drop down list:-)) then select view comment or what it is named:-)

It is real pain to enter big instruction and cookbook to handle the bad test, hope you understand what i want.

Actually, it's possible. ;-) You just should right click on test item and select "Test info" item from popup menu. There is "Test comment" tab at the bottom of appeared "Test info" window.

Yeah, I see. "Comment" window is not very convenient for entering huge pieces of text, really...
Ok. Will think about it.
