How to edit name mapping of pop-up objects?
Hello everyone, I am struggling with the following problem: In my tested application I have some objects that only appear when I click on an item (such as a menu but not a "menu" item) and disappear...
Forum Discussion
have you tried the second option to grab the object (ctrl + shift + a)
that way, you click the object, pop up appears, then you hover the mouse till the object is captured, then you press ctrl shift a.
Best,

that's what I used. The problem is that I can't edit the name mapping because when I change from the tested application to TestComplete the object is gone and the specific fields can't be read anymore. Or the object I need is not exactly the object I could target with the mouse but an object one or more levels up the object tree. But when I want to change to the Object Browser the target is gone and not be accessible in the tree.
Hi Capricornus -
My suggestion would be to add an object and then modify the properties to be those of the disappearing object - its a bit of a workaround but will allow you to add the object to the NameMapping.
Let me know if you have additional questions.

Hi Emma,
my problem is that I can't access objects above the identified pop-up object in the tree. E.g. when I access a pop-up window with the Object Spy, a "Border" object is identified. But I need the "window" (or so) object that contains the "border", but I can't access it.
