Click method not accepted in chrome

Hi Lage,

Thanks for response. I appreciate your simple answer that made me work hard to solve the problem. 

Your question: Are you sure that your icons are in the selected cell (0,3 ) instead of cel (0,2) ?

My Answer: Yes, the icons were in the cell(0,3).

Your suggestion: Maybe you can click on relative coords to the cell. 

My Solution: Yes, that works. The icons where accessible as HTML child elements but Click method was available in all the browsers except Chrome. I had to use 'offset.Width' & 'offset.Height' values to find the coordinates of the icons and click in the cell on those icons in the Chrome browser. This worked only for Chrome and could not be able ot click on the icon in the other browsers. So, I had to use conditional statement to make Click method browser specific.

It was the case of simple solution but I was going through all but right direction.

Thanks a lot.

somethimes there is no way and we have to use ungly thinks like that hehe...good job!

Hi Vivek72

Even i have similar problem in clicking the buttons in  span elements.i'm working in Chrome browser.

I can able to find those buttons through "FindChildByXpath() and EvaluateXpath() methods " but throws back an error while clicking those buttons as "Click is not a function".

So Please suggest  a way to resolve this issue. 

Hi,

As it has been noted several times on this forum, search by XPath is the worst approach in TestComplete's world and should be used only when nothing else works.

One of the reasons for this is that (as it is noted in the documentation) search by XPath may return either object that is wrapped (supported) by TestComplete or native DOM object.

.Click() (with the capital 'C') is the wrapping method provided by TestComplete. Obviously, it is inaccessible for native DOM elements.

The generic approach if searching UI elements by XPath:

-- Search for the element;

-- If the element was found, check whether the native DOM element or the element wrapped by TestComplete was returned (to do this, you can check if some property specific to TestComplete (e.g. .Exists one) is supported with the help of the aqObject.IsSupported() function);
