    Hi HKTCentrix, since none of the suggestions helped, I am assuming your situation might require deeper investigation from our side.

    Please contact the SmartBear Support Team and describe the issue you are facing in detail. Thank you!

I have tried using the timer

start_time = time.time()
while (time.time() - start_time < hold_time) :
         self.search_bar.Keys('[Down]')
############################

Also, have tried this suggested somewhere in the forum:

self.search_bar.SetFocus()
self.search_bar.Keys('[Down]')
Sys.Desktop.KeyDown(Win32API.VK_CONTROL);
Delay(50000);
Sys.Desktop.KeyUp(Win32API.VK_CONTROL); 

Nothing has worked!
