Refresh mapping information on overlapping windows

Hi,



I have to test an application and following situation appears:



I have a window identified by

NameMapping.Sys.xxxxx.dlgSelectTheTraceFile and mapped using the name property:

Window("#32770", "Please select the trace file", 1)



If the user selects an invalid file, another a dialog appears with exactly the same name and parameters:

NameMapping.Sys.xxxxx.dlgSelectTheTraceFile and

Window("#32770", "Please select the trace file", 1)



What is happening with the background window (the first one) is that it will change the index into value 2, as below:

Window("#32770", "Please select the trace file", 2)



In my testcase I do a refresh using the command

NameMapping.Sys.xxxxx.dlgSelectTheTraceFile.RefreshMappingInfo, but the mapping will not be updated.



Also the manual Refresh Current Object control does not work every time.



My Test Complete version is 10.40.2015.7

    Ok, I found the problem: two window were mapped with the same identifiers. I updated the mapping and now works using the RefreshMapping command

    In Name Mapping, have you tried clearing the Index Value from the mapped Object so it is Null?

    The ID seems to be the only difference between the two window so I can not set it to none, because the second will not be recognized anymore.

    Any chance you could post a screenshot of the Name Mapping section where these Objects are located?



    Will be easier for me to reply with a decent answer.
