Can't access Selector Builder

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 145

I have seen others refer to Selector Builder and provide screenshots. Microsoft has a help page https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/ui-elements with the following: 

"Manage an element’s selectors by right-clicking any UI element and selecting Edit selector. This brings up the Selector builder, where the selector can be edited with a visual editor."

 

I follow the steps and can see the list of UI elements, but right-clicking elements doesn't give me any options.

 

How do I access the Selector Builder?

    Finally found it. Here are the steps:

    1) Go to the top View menu and click "UI Elements". This brings up a panel on the right called "UI Elements"

    2) From that list of elements, right-click and click "Edit Selectors"

    3) When the selector comes up, double click it and this will show the Selector Builder

    I cannot believe I waster 2 hours for this thing, maybe design a less moronic application Microsoft.
