UI Automation and Window title - parameterise the windows title for UI Element

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 20

When I reference a control in a windows app , the UI element builds up the control path as shown below .  The UI element path contains the name of the window in the path.   

This causes issues when you run the PAD flow against the same application where the application has loaded a different file .  As the path has changed and the PAD cannot find the control when targeted against a new document. 

 

I have tried editing the UI element (edit Selectors) , however the path to the control is not shown when you edit the UI Element. And hence I cannot parameterise the window name .

 

Any suggestions ?

thanks

John
