That's interesting.  I would have expected a full refresh to resolve the issue.

Thanks for the update.  I will take a closer look and get back to you.

Actually, in this case, I first tried refreshing the log file and that didn't work. Then I closed and re-opened the worksspace.

Thanks for reporting this issues Brad.

I will need to investigate this issue and get back to you.  In the meantime, if you detect a loss of connection, refreshing your log file (F5) may be the best work-around.

As suggested, the issue is probably related to the laptop suspension / loss of connection.  The fix here will likely involve improved error detection and reporting.  If we were to refresh the connection automatically, important log entries may be lost.  If we resume the connection, there will be  a gap where log entries may have been written.

Thanks again,

Toby

Most of the time, LVP updates a log within a few seconds of the file being written to. However, I sometimes encounter situations where log files stop updating completely. For example, I just checked one of my log files in LVP and the last entry was from a week ago. I knew that was wrong, so I checked the monitoring pane and it showed that the file was being actively monitored. Then I closed and reopened the workspace. After that, it showed the hundreds of log entries from the past week.

I have LVP installed on my laptop and the machine is frequently suspended without an Internet connection when I'm moving about. Therefore, I'm wondering if it loses the connection while the machine is suspended, then fails to reestablish the connection when the Internet connection is restored. I think the monitoring function needs to be made more robust to account for this scenario.
