Main Window - Event List

The event list shows events for the selected product or search. The breadcrumbs at the top left of the view show the product name and version for a product event list and ‘Search Results’ for a search. To clear a search click the clear search toolbar button or delete all text from the search box and hit enter.

You can enter a bug tracking number or other brief information about the event in the Reference column. Click the reference cell for an event, type your reference and then hit enter to save.

The summary at the top right displays information about the selected product. If the summary contains no information then the event list contains the results of a search across all products.

When you select an event the charts on the right will refresh to help you visualize the hits associated with that event. The charts are interactive — hover to see a tooltip with specific data, double-click a chart element to search for events that match the highlighted data.

Double-click an event or click Show Details to show the Event Details view.

A context menu is available when you right-click an event. From this menu you can open the event page on the WinQual site, copy the StackHash URL, export information to XML, set event properties and search for more information about the application or module associated with the event.

Event List

ID The WinQual Id for the event. Note that the Id may be negative and that an event is uniquely identified by the combination of the Id and the Type (i.e. duplicate Ids are allowed for different Event Types).
Status The current internal status of the event. Status values can be customized (see Statuses in Service Options).
Reference A free form text field for annotating the event (i.e. person responsible, defect tracking number).
Plugin Reference A free form text field used by plugins. If a plugin is enabled this would typically be set to the defect tracking number associated with the event.
Type WinQual Event Type Name, i.e. Crash 32bit or CLR20 Managed Crash. Note that an event is uniquely identified by the combination of the Id and the Type.
Hits Number of hits for the event. A hit is an actual report of the event through Windows Error Reporting.
Cabs Number of cabs available for the event.
App Application name associated with the event. Note, right-click the event and choose Properties to see the raw event signature used to create the event (bucket). Right-click the event and choose Research... if you do not recognize the application.
App Version Application version associated with the event.
Module Module name associated with the event. Right-click the event and choose Research... if you do not recognize the module.

Cab Collection Policy The cab collection policy for the event. Note that the collection policy controls how many of the available cabs are downloaded from WinQual. To request more cabs you must visit the WinQual web site. Default Collection Policies can be set for the profile in Service Options. To override the cab collection policy for the current event right-click it and choose Properties.

Note that columns can be re-ordered in the client and so might not be in the order listed above. You can re-order columns by clicking and dragging the header.
