Issue: Unable to select a specific button using UI Element
Example 1
The elements it detects are the empty blocks, not the one with icon Capture based on Text doesn’t work either.
Example 2
It doesn’t seem to capture properly all the elements. Another example: Unable to select a specific tab. I would expect us to be able to select the specific tab name.
Some legacy apps Power Automate Desktop has trouble capturing the UI elements. I have automated some legacy apps that has similar issues with capturing UI elements.
What I have done in those scenarios is used keyboard keys to navigate the interface. So where ever possible use keyboard shortcuts that the legacy application might have. So if those specific buttons that PAD cant recognize have shortcut keys then use Send keys -action so the flow uses the shortcut to activate the button. Or if there is some text field try to navigate to it with Tab or arrow keys.
Or you can also try "Move mouse to image" -action and capture image of the button you want to press.
