The window is invisible, and thus cannot be activated

Hi,



I've seen numerous posts on this subject, and tried the fixes suggested, but none has solved this issue.  I am testing an Open App DelphiXE application.  At one point when the script clicks a button, a new form is opened which also opens a modal form.  The form exists, and I can set an object to it, but the script fails with the The window is invisible, and thus cannot be activated error.  Has there been a fix installed for this?  I cannot activate the object, nor click a button which exists on the object.  I've tried the

Aliases.RefreshMappingInfo(); function, but it didn't help.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks,

Mark

    When we upgraded from Test Complete 9.1 to 9.2 I saw the same error on a couple of the button clicks.  I had to add a very small delay right after the click event. The vbScript command is:  Call aqUtils.Delay(250) 

    I added a 250 delay in one spot and a 500 delay in the other spot.  All the other button clicks worked fine and id not need the delay.



    I hope this helps!!
