    This is a mapped object right?

     

    In which case, this: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/reference/test-objects/members/common-for-all/refreshmappinginfo-method.html

     

    .. .might help?

     

    Additional thought, your mapping appears to be to the container object that holds the button yes? That's the part with the dynamic identification property here? In which case, just ignore it. Search for the button directly from "panel1" (whatever that is - the parent object of the button container). Do a 2 level deep search for the button and the properties on the container cease to matter.

     

    Unless there is something I'm not aware of preventing you from doing this ....

     

    (I'm not clear exactly whats going on here. Do you have one button, which has dynamic properties? Or two buttons, with very similar properties, which you are trying to use a single name map for? If it's two buttons, are they present at the same time? Or is only one of them ever present? All these factors affect how you'd approach this ...)

Colin_McCrae，thank you very much, it helps ,TestObj.RefreshMappingInfo() now I know ,once the identification property is setted, it can not be reset, unless you restart TC ,or use TestObj.RefreshMappingInfo() this case, it is a panel with 30 buttons, parent node is BoxControl, I want to use a dynamic identification property to match one of it. "Aliases...xxx...BoxControl.index" is 1 to 30

    Sounds like something I'd use a helper function for if very little is different/changes between the buttons.

     

    Seems a little cumbersome to map 30 of them and then use a dynamic property to identify each one. If I've understood what you're working with (not 100% sure I have), it sounds like mapping as far as the top level container, then finding the relevant button on the fly at runtime would be easier.

      now I know 2 solutions 1. object.RefreshMappingInfo() 2. does not depend on name mapping: var_no="13" #1~30 Sys.Process("LockControlSimulator")......WinFormsObject("BoxControl" , "" ,var_no)......ClickButton()
