Easiest way to loop a button (UI element) press?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Dazzer123 10

Hi folks,

 

I need to press an interface element (button) on web page 22 times to zoom out a graph, before i automate a download of the data.

 

The data that's downloaded is dependent on the graph zoom.

 

Could anyone tell me, what's the easiest / most efficient way to set this up? I appreciate it has something to do with a loop, but so far my experimenting yielded no results and google does help much either.

 

Thanks!

    Use loop 

    Give value start 0 

    Increment by 1 

    Inside loop you put the activity of press button which you want to press 

    And please check if it works with short keys 

    If it works with short keys then you can use send hot keys activity 

    Hope this helps
