Hello, I have a client who just installed the latest version of FME Form 2023.0.2.1 Build 23339 WIN 64 and when he runs a workspace, nothing shows up AT ALL in the translation log window. It remains completely blank.

 

We tried using the Log File in the logging section of the Workspace Parameters and when we open this file in a text editor, it is not empty and shows the translation log as expected.

 

I am starting to think it might be just a weird visual bug with FME Form 2023.0.2.1. Did anyone else experienced this bug in the past with 2023.x or any other version of FME Form? I added pictures to show what I mean by a "blank" translation log window and also my client's log settings and log file.

 

Thank you.

 

 

That's really weird. Is there anything selectable in the log window (perhaps it's a grey text on grey background thing?)


No there is not, he tried with the light mode on in workbench and it still not showing any elements on the translation log.


Last thing I can think of: can you try another font for the log?


My first guess is that the font colour is equal to the background colour. Try setting the default theme in FME Options / Appearance.


Thank you @Hans van der Maarel​ and @david_r​ for taking time to answer me. We found the problem (which was actually pretty simple/dumb): If you take a peak at that log window picture I posted, you can see that my client's log window was not well adjusted and we could only see the transformers location column and not the messages column like normal. He unchecked the Log Transformer Location parameter and he can see the log messages again.
