Hi everyone,
I am trying to understand why I can't detect and therefore map a particular object in my tested web application. Screenshot is attached of the element being inspected. Anyone know why it's not being detected by TestComplete/ How the developers could change it to make it detectable?
Thanks
Tom.
Is the content rendered within an Iframe?
Chromium browsers can be tricky with iFrames however you can configure the browser to make the content within the frame accessible.
See this doc outlining what needs to be configured in Edge or Chrome

Good question and I have no idea, will have to ask the Devs and if it is the iFrame issue I will check out the link.
Thanks for the suggestion👍👍
Just in relation to this point. The sibling element
span > span.rf-layout-row > span.rf-message-red.rf-cell-label.rf-column-label-xl
can be detected by TestComplete. Would this be possible if there was an iFrame? I'm assuming both the siblings, including the undetectable one, would be affected by the iFrame. So if one is detectable and one not does that indicate that there is no iFrame, and something else is the issue?
Hi Thomas
Sorry for the delay.
In order to access the iframe content we would need to run the browser in a certain way ie disabling web security etc
Thats all mentioned in the doc.
However, if a sibling object is accessible it may not be a frame issue.
I would recommend engaging with our support team

Feel free to message me privately the case number.
If its possible for me to replicate on my machine it would be great

I found a similar example (https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_css_circles) and it seems like TC is not able to recognise the "dots".
Not sure if this is a limitation of TC?
