Posted on by CU20012229-0

I have a flow rinning on PC1` with a monitor size 1440 x 3440. I am trying to run it on a different pc with a monitor size of 1440 x 5120. When it gets to the first action that involves the monitor, i.e., Populate Text Box on web Page, it hangs up. I can't even select that UI element by clicking on it. Please advide. TIA.

HI @CU20012229-0

Are you able to change the resolution on the second to match your first? It's of course going to change the location since its larger, ... well lol aka smaller...

So you can move it, but your resolution settings should match when you run the flow.

That or you need to start using Unattended mode, on a VM, so that you don't have to worry about changing machines, as you set the resolution of the VM, run it there.

Then you can move the VM to another machine but keep the same resolution.

As Michael said you should set the resolutions to be the same so the flow works as you have built it. Or run unattended mode and set the unattended runs resolution the same which you had when you developed the flow. In newest updates you can set unattended resolution for each flow individually in the designer

Or if you run attended run then you can use "Set screen resolution" -action to change the resolution at the start of the flow. Then just have same action at the end to set the resolution back to what you want it to be when flow is not running.
