There was an attempt to perform an action at point (68, 0)

Anybody?

Are you passing anything in to the click method itself in your code or keyword test?  I've seen the behavior you've described when the code does something like this

MyValue = "MyButtonName"

Control.Click(MyValue)

It's TestComplete's attempt to try and convert MyValue to a set of co-ordinates for the click method.

Nope, just a myControl.Click



Now this control is located on a popup window. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.



IE9, Windows Vista

It's possible that the click is being attempted by the automation before the window has fully rendered on screen.



I'd suggest putting a WaitWindow (or other appropriate WaitNN method) call before your click call to make sure the window is visible and ready for interaction before you make the click call.

Well I put a break in the code and then step into the myControl.Click method and still nothing.  The window is on screen and fully rendered.

This is actually happening on the main IE window as well as popups.  I have a handle to the control.  control.Exists returns true, control.id returns the right id, but control.Click gives me "There was an attempt to perform an action at point (68,0)"

Hrm...  How long of a string is the inner text for the link that is being clicked?  Does the link actually do a line-wrap to a second line?  



Try turning visualizer on during playback and replay the test and then take a look at the visuliazation in the results.



Could you post the relevant code routine here as well just in case there's something going on in there that's not immediately obvious?

The link just says "Can't access your account?".  No line wrap or anything.  I get a handle to the control just fine.  Its ID and everything match up to what I see in the Object Browser.  But clicking this control just gives me the error: There was an attempt to perform an action at point (68, 0), which is out of the window bounds.



The relevant code looks like this:



        Set myControl = getControl(pattern, "clickButton")

        

        If myControl.Exists Then

          If myControl.Id <> -1 Then

            errorCount = Log.ErrCount

            call myControl.scrollIntoview(true)

            myControl.Click



The HTML looks like this.  The link I'm trying to click is in the last line:

Any ideas on this one?

Click is a method that normally takes parameters.  Your last line of code should read

myControl.Click()

Not sure if that's the actual fix but that's one syntax thing that I noted that might be causing the problem.  Let me keep looking and I'll let you know if I see anything else.



The "getControl" method, is that your own code or is that something build in to the page?
