Can we use Desktop object and Browser object simultaneously in Script?

I have use case where I need identify website object and windows explorer object as well. So disabled the browser's extension with that I was able to detect window's explorer object. When I am execution code I need to enable test complete extension because of which window's object are not getting identified in script. My problem is that I need to execute script where website objects and windows object both need to be executed simultaneously. Can someone help me with that.

    Hi,

     

    No problem with the scenarios like your in TestComplete. You just need to have Desktop and Web licenses and have relevant extensions enabled in File|Install Extensions dialog.

    Then your code might look like this:

    var oWindow = Aliases.DesktopApp.Window;

    var oPage = Aliases.Browser.Page;

    oWindow.Click(...);

    if (<someValue> == oPage.someTextBox.contentText)

      oWindow.someCheckBox.SetChecked(true);

    ...

      I have both desktop and web license. And both extensions are enabled. Still my code doesn't work.

      ex code: 

      var page = Sys.Browser("chrome").Page("https://<xyz>");
      var Report_header = page.Form("aspnetForm").Panel("masterBody").Panel(0).Table("viewOptions");
      var Report_lable = Report_header.Cell(0, 1).Link(1).Click()
      Sys.Process("chrome").UIAObject("SafetyDirect_Reports_Vehicle_Vehicle_Report_Google_Chrome_Neha_Dixit").UIAObject("Google_Chrome").UIAObject(1).UIAObject(2).UIAObject("Downloads_bar").UIAObject("VehicleReport*").UIAObject("Options_menu").Click();
      Here I am not able to access UIAobject, when browser extension is enabled. I want to access web page object as well as browser object in same script.

        Hi,

         

        > Sys.Process("chrome").UIAObject("SafetyDirect_Reports_Vehicle_Vehicle_Report_Google_Chrome_Neha_Dixit")

        What is this SafetyDirect_Reports_Vehicle_Vehicle_Report_Google_Chrome_Neha_Dixit object (and other objects from the code line) ?
        Is it some web page element, or something injected by your application into Chrome or something else?
        Can you provide a screenshot?
