    Hi,

     

    You want to suppress the error when that object not exists in the screen since you are expecting object will get visible on the screen after some time.

     

    If my understanding correct, before checking VisbleOnScreen you need to check the Exists property in-order to suppress the object not exists error in the TC logs.

     

    Like below,

     

    if(Object_A.Exists)
{
    Object_A.VisbleOnScreen;
}

      This thing worked! I used the Object_A.Exists and Object_B.Exists properties instead of VisibleOnScreen. Thanks a lot!
