Resizing Windows

Is there a way of Resizing the Dialog Window that you are testing? For Example i'm testing my program Test.exe, and i want the dialog to be set to a certain size. I want to set it by pixel. so i need it to be 760 x 1024 px. I just got a bigger screen so i need to change all my tests but while i'm doing that i want to keep my screen at the same size so i can take my tiime in fixing them.

    Hello my friend.



    Try the Position Action article. However, the script should not depend on how big is the screen. Are you creating scripts by coordinates?



    I just can assure you that it is possible to maximize the window size, by using the property .Maximize() - you can read more about it on Window Object Methods article.



    Hope it helps.

    I have a graphics window and there are coordinate clicks in my tests. so when i change the size of the screen the test no longer clicks the correct location.


    For Example..



    Before:

    Call Aliases.TestProgram.Window.Click(55, 80)



    After:(With a Bigger Screen)

    Call Aliases.TestProgram.Window.Click(65, 90)



    But Untill i can change the tests i need the screen to resize to its original size...

    Is this .Click(x,y) necessary?



    After I record my Desktop Tests, I erase all .Click(x,y) lines or just erase the x and y coordinates and use like this:



    Call Aliases.TestProgram.Window.Click()
