2022.1

The log viewer for the current day is always live, meaning it updates automatically as the log
file is updated by the appropriate service.
Viewing older log files
To open an existing, older log file:
1.
In the File menu, click on Open.
2. Browse to the location of the log file you want to open
3.
Click on the log file and click Open.
The log file is added, by name, at the end of the list of PReS Workflow services. Clicking
on it opens the log file in the viewer. Right-clicking on the file brings a menu from which
the log file can be refreshed, or removed from the list.
The log viewer for existing log files does not refresh automatically since log files for older days
do not generally change. The display of the sessions, processes and tasks is the same.
Note
The log viewer as described here was introduced in version 7.4 of PReS Workflow.
Though it should be able to open log files from older versions of PReS Workflow, the
results are not guaranteed. Some log files may not display properly in this view.
Searching through the active log file
When a log file is active in the log viewer, it can be searched by going in the Search menu,
then clicking Find. After entering a search term and selecting the options (Match case and
Direction), clicking Find Next will display the first result for the search term.
When a search is started, using F3 on the keyboard or clicking Search then Search again will
find and highlight the next available result.
