I am new to Automation Anywhere. I am trying to click on specific cell value of a web page table.
I have cloned the table object and applied action "Click on cell by index" provided by automation anywhere tool on specific row and column.
Secondly, I tried Mouse Click functionality but, on search base position of cell where to click will not always be the same that's why cant implement mouse click.
Screenshot is attached what I have done so far, Nothing happens by click on the cell. I want to click on the value present in the cell.
I want to click on highlighted portion mentioned in below screenshot:
Any kind of help will be appreciated.
Could you attach a screenshot of the full search criteria? I'm sure it has to be something with the path and DomXpath.
Make sure that below points have been checked:
The object properties should be unique and non changing. This is required to identify the object correctly during execution
Check whether object cloning is working properly with current screen resolution. If not, you need to change the screen resolution

I have a spreadsheet that is scraping some data off a website.
One part of my program is to tick a tickbox.
I'm able to find the element without any problem using FindElementbyCSS but clicking it doesn't tick the tick box.
this is my code
.FindElementByCss("label[for='chkStdDev1']").Click
This is the tickbox (the first one, second one is ticked by default)
and this is what I see when I inspect the element
Was nice and happy when I managed to find the element correctly, but now it's driving me a bit insane as it won't tick!
You are trying to check the label rather than the checkbox type input.
Use
.FindElementById("chkStdDev1").Click

I am using it for functional test automation of my java spring standalone application. I am having the same set of images(logos) at multiple locations on the screen. and they are generated dynamically as per the application data. In that case how can I find and click on certain buttons/elements in the UI.
Example: like, share, comment text/image will be there several times in facebook page. in that how to we click on particular buttons out of all.(facebook is just an example) i want the similar solution for my application.
I think what you're asking is- given a case where the same image or UI element is present multiple times on the same page, how can I specify one of these elements in one location versus the same element in another?
The quick and easy way to do this would be to capture a larger picture, like as much of the window as you can, and click the image in parentheses after the click action; this opens a window reading file, matching preview, and target offset. Click target offset, use the mouse wheel to zoom in, and click on the exact point of the picture that you'd like to click.
It's possible to click in multiple places on a captured image, provided you use different click() commands, and you can set the target offset for each click() command without needing a new picture.
With just this one image, you can potentially click every square on the board provided you take the time to set the offset for each of the 64 click() commands it'd take to do so. http://files.chesscomfiles.com/images_users/tiny_mce/cigoL/Chessboard.png
The more difficult solution would be setting up regions, and searching those regions for the matching pictures, but for what you're looking for this should- for more about regions and setting it up check links below. Cheers!

Based on your FB example you could use setROI() to focus on the top post on the page (imagine a rectangle that covers a complete post on the news feed) from there I would loop:
if exists(profile pic):
click(like button)
elif exists(profile pic 2): # If you are testing more than one user
click(like button)
else : type(Key.DOWN) #repeat as needed
Getting the next post into the ROI may be tricky but using WHEEL_DOWN may help if you can adjust your lines traveled with each wheel click on your system.
I have a dynamically generated spreadsheet. I would like to be able to allow the viewer to go to a different sheet/cell when a cell is clicked on. I'm having trouble figuring out a good way to do this.
Going to the new cell is fairly easy: Spreadhseet.setActiveSheet()/Spreadsheet.setActiveRange() work fine. My thought was to encode the link destination in the contents of the source cell, and then write a script to "follow" the link.
I tried using images or drawings. But there were two problems with this: while images can be inserted programmatically, I did not see a way to programmatically associate a script with them. And the called script does not have an associated event tied to it, so there is no way to see what cell the user clicked (clicking an image does not set the active cell).
I thought about using onEdit(). This almost works, but onEdit is only triggered on changes (not selection) so the user actually has to modify the cell in order to "link". When testing I tended to zap the contents of the cell by accident with onEdit.
I tried making a menu item, and in the menu's script get the active cell's contents to determine where to go to. This worked but was a bit more difficult for the user than I was hoping for.
I was hoping someone would have a creative solution to this problem.
Thanks!
From what you are describing the drawing or image insertion should work since it has exactly the same functionality as the menu item. You can assign a script to it just like in a menu.
I am currently working on making my Flex application accessible.
I have an mx DataGrid that I am using for showing complex data. Each row contains information about a person and one of the columns contains a button to "submit" that person's information.
Currently if I tab to the DataGrid, it has focus on the whole thing, but I cannot tab to individual cells. For accessibility purposes, I need the user to be able to tab to each of these cells to read the information. Everywhere I've looked I've found that it seems the only way to focus on an individual cell is to set the editable property to true. However, I do not want to make the field editable, as that information should not be changed.
At the very least I would like to be able to tab to the cell that has the button ItemRendender for each person. I could set the rest of the information in the accessibilityName of that.
Is there any way to accomplish this? Or am I going to have to find a more "creative" solution?
In case anyone is wondering how to get around this, the only way I could find is to switch over to an AdvancedDataGrid. If you set the ADG's selectable property to true, you can use the arrow keys to select a whole row at a time, and the screen reader will read the whole row of information.
Then to get the effect of clicking the row's button, I set a keyboard event watcher that performs the function of the button using the target(ADG)'s selected item when you press space.
In an auto-generated chart based on a query (I dragged the chart object onto a blank form to start it), the chart itself is displaying and updating properly, datawise, but I want to change the Legend from reading "SumOfAvgOfield1" and "SumOfAvgOfield2" to regular words suitable for final presentations. But I can't find a way to change it!
I realize this is a late answer, but I was just having a similar issue and figured someone else might benefit from knowing how to get rid of the 'SumOf' labels.
In design view, right click on the chart and select 'Properties'.
Choose the Data tab.
The 'Row Source' field is the one you're going to be interested.
In there you can see various places where it's labeling your data:
Sum() AS [SumOfData]
Just edit the text right in the properties window and you'll be set.
This is WAY late, but here's what I found (Yes we still use office 2007)
Open the form in PivotTable View. Open Property Sheet. Highlight the column you want to change the Legend Caption for. Choose the Captions Tab in the properties window. There you can change the captions for each column.
Had 4 charts on a form. 3 would let me edit the Heading of the Chart, the 4th would not. Read a lot of posts that did not pertain. Noticed the datasheet for the 4th chart was completely empty.
SOLUTION: Clicked on chart until the datasheet appeared. Added mock field headings and mock data to datasheet. I could then click on chart and edit the chart's Heading. You can also highlight and change the color of selected words in the chart's Heading. Very Nice!
Good luck,
Vancer
The SumofAverageOfFiled1, etc is automatically generated. Even if you edit it in the datasheet, it changes back (or at least that is my experience). What I did to get around this is add a Rectangle and fill it with white and size it to cover up the "Sumof" captions. You can Bring to Front the Rectangle. Then you can add text boxes to label the chart's bars to read the way you want them. Drag them over the Rectange and Bring to Front.
Hope this helps.
Everywhere I looked it said just change the Pivot Table to change the Legend Entry.
Well, let me tell you.
First, if you have no Pivot Table that you can see do the following:
go to design view and select the form
right click and hit Properties. Scroll through till you see AllowPivotTableView and select yes.
Now you can go and change the column headers!
This could help
Select xxxxx, yyyyy from zzzz
Chart0.ChartSeriesCollection(0).DisplayName = ![XXXXX]
Chart0.ChartSeriesCollection(1).DisplayName = ![YYYYY]
Was very difficult to me to find a way to do it.
