Waiting for onscreen message to disappear

Hi,

If You are sure that this object actually exists on-screen You can use this function for example:

function waitUntilExist(o, count) {
  var count = count || 60;
  for (var i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
    if (o.Exists == true) {
      aqUtils.Delay(1000);
    } else {
      break;
    }
  }
}

But this will only work for You If .exist is available. Or try to create some kind of do() while {}.

But unfortunately the message isn't an obect that can be obtained via object spy, not is it in its own text box or similar.

Otherwise it would be a lot easier.

Any object can be found somewhere as an object.  If it's part of the application that generates a UI, it's there somewhere.

As a minor correction to Wamboo , though.  I would not use just strict "Exists" of the object "o".  If "o" stops existing, calling "Exists" on it will generate an error that the object no longer exists.  I would pass in to that function not the object but the object name or property set or something and use something like "FindChildEx" to find the object in a loop.
