How to handle same window but different height on different OS

Hi,



I have two windows which have same name but has different sizes on different operating systems. One solution is that I can have 3 different windows in NameMapping according to their sizes.



Is there anyway I can use regular expressions and just have only window in NameMapping to work in different OS? 



When I tried to use regular expression, it only takes intergar values.

    What kind of windows are you talking about? I am not clear what you are doing with size that would affect the object recognition. Can you be more specific about the nature of your issue?

    In fact I am working on desktop application, where I have two dialogs which have same name. To make them different I used height/width property in NameMapping. Now I face the problem that these dialogs have different height/width on different operating systems.



    When I mapped into NameMapping I was using Windows 7 , the width was 623. It worked fine in Windows 7 but doesn't work on Windows Vista/Windows 8 where width is different.



    I tried to use regular expression in width but it only accepts integar values.

    I did not know about the required children topic that was suggested. But yes, finding some other way to uniquely id the different windows is the way to go.
