    Hi,

     

    Can you recognize this control using the Object Spy?

    Maybe Dev could add further Ids to this icon element.

     

    another option.

     

    If you can Object Spy the main Icon and obtain the height and width, you could then

    apply some math to work from the (x,0) - upper right part of icon and determine a suitable

    coordinate to use to click on the [...] 3 dots.

     

    This could be applied to the other icons in the same fashion.

     

    Hope this approach helps.

      Hi James,

       

      Thank you for response. since it is glyphicon, unable to select using objectSpy. Issue got resolved by using findchildbyXpath.

       

      Thanks,
