Object spy not working in Emulator post instrumentation

[stanandley]

I'm new to test complete tool. I'm just exploring and learning its components.

Problem: I'm not able to spy the exact object through 'object spy' in emulator post instrumenting the app. Instead, when I object spy, the whole mobile screen is selected.

But with help of 'Object Browser' I am able to see the objects of the current screen and Im trying to highlight the object through the 'Highlight' function but Test Complete failed to highlight the element.

What am I missing here?

It will be great if you can advice or show the way forward.
