Click on UI element stop working

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Hi everyone!
 
I try to capture a UI element with the following selector:
 

 > pane[Class="BrowserRootView"] > pane > pane > pane > pane > document[Id="RootWebArea"] > group > group > group > menu > group > menuitem[Name="spam"]
 
Although the selector works properly when I select the Ui element with the "Add UI-element" button, it cannot find it when I change the last element of the selector to menuitem[Name*="spam"], that is, changing from "Equal to" to "Contains". Also, when I try the selector on similar pages, it contains different number of elements, and therefore, its not findable.
 
Could anyone help me please?
 
Thank you.

    Hi,
     
    Also could you try to find and add an attribute which you think makes that UI Element visible which makes it unique out of all other simmilar UI Elements ?
     
    Thanks & Regards,
