    I'm not 100% familiar with the particulars of mobile testing... but I know that for desktop and web testing, for a drop-down control, if it has the "ClickItem" method, you don't need to scroll before you click... you can call the "ClickItem" to click on the particular item and TestComplete will take care of any necessary scrollign.

      Hi tristaanogre,
      also problem has been resolved by using smoothScrollToPosition() ... that helps to find item position in dropdown.
      I tried to solve it by using ClickItem but it sometimes work and sometimes not.. I don't know what is exactly problem with ClickItem

        I have seen cases where a list is longer than the screen and depending on how it was developped, the items are not created (added to the tree) until you they are shown on screen (via scroll)!
