    You can implement some checkObjectExists() method:

     

     

     

    function checkObjectExists(object, timeout) {

  Options.Run.Timeout = timeout;
  if object.Exists {
    do_something();
  }
  else { 
    do_something_else();
  }
  Options.Run.Timeout = 10000;

}

Hi,

 

Set Project -> Properties -> Playback -> Auto-wait timeout value to 2000

 

or use Options.Run.Timeout = 2000 to control timeouts programatically.

Hi, I suppose that will set Timeout for entire project as 2 sec. I want 2 sec only when particular code is running, as rest all object will require more Timeout.

      IMO it would be much safer to use a WaitProperty so you're not adjusting the global wait.

      function checkObjectExists(object, timeout) {

 if (!object.WaitProperty("Exists",true,timeout)) {
    do_something();
  }
  else { 
    do_something_else();
  }
}
