Copy Event Values into Rules
To display and enable a rule set
1. At the top of the BT Studio window, click the arrow to display the list of
defined applications. This list displays only defined applications. To define
rules for a new application, you must first define the application, and then
repeat this procedure.
2. Select the desired application from the list.
3. Check the title of the BT Studio window. It should reflect the name of the
application rule set that you want to modify and test. For example, if you
are monitoring the Outlook rules, the window title includes "Outlook.rul".
4. Click Enable/Disable Application to enable the application for rule
development and testing.
BT Studio displays that application’s rule set in the rules pane, where you
can do the following:
5. Use a template to write a rule.
6. Create event specifications automatically.
7. Copy values from the event log into the rules pane for transaction
definitions.
8. Define resources by specifying resource types and parameters.
9. Define transactions by specifying event types and event actions.
10. Insert comments.
11. Print the rule set.
Hint: After you open an event log and display a rule set, test the rules against
the event log to make sure that BT Studio can recognize default transactions
and that you have the correct application rules enabled and displayed.
Copy Event Values into Rules
When developing a rule set, you may want to use values from the event log as
parameters for rules. BT Studio allows you to copy and paste event values into
the rules pane. This feature speeds the rule definition process and reduces
typing errors. The ability to copy and paste event values is especially useful for
the Executable, Window Title, Window Class, Object ID, and Text columns.
These values can otherwise be difficult to determine. BT Studio, however,
clearly identifies them for each event and allows you to copy and paste the
values into the rule definition to avoid retyping.
To copy an event value
In the events pane, locate an event that includes the value to copy.
1. Right-click the value.
