Hi Robert
The Indicator.Hide is much earlier in the test than the close window action. Actually, when I tried it yesterday it actually worked! But it stopped working after a few runs of that test. I've tried it today and it's failed again.
Thanks for the information about the object.Close method. We did try this beforehand and it worked fine. We would just prefer to use the Indicator.Hide and Indicator.Show methods because in the test we want to close the windows using the mouse action, as a user would.
It looks like the object.Close method is the one to go with for now but it would be better if the Indicator would Hide.
Thanks for your help!
Jenny
FYI, I just ran into this problem in our environment. I'll be creating a support case for it.

Great! Thanks Robert.
Good to know we're not alone!

Robert,
There is another serious issue that has changed with regards to the Indicator. I have thousands of Region Checkpoints in my tests. I upgraded from 12.20 to 12.40, now the Indicator is included in the Region Checkpoint if the application window happens to be wide enough to have the indicator overlap the application.
This is new behavior, and causes hundreds of my Region Checkpoints to fail.
As a temporary work-around, I tried to call Indicator.Hide() in "Run Code Snippet", and in a script called from my Keyword Test, and also tried the "Call Object Method" operation in a keyword test as you mentioned here. All of these are ignored!
I'm not going to add a mask to every Region Checkpoint as a work-around.
This really puts me in a bind.
Regards,
Rick

Hi Rick,
Thank you for the detailed description of the problem. (BTW, does it still exist in the version 12.41, the latest at the moment of writing?)
The case is that Robert is not employed by SmartBear, so I would recommend you to create a Support ticket via the https://support.smartbear.com/message/?prod=TestComplete form and reference this thread.

As noted, please report this... there is a patch available that I applied... but the patch, I think, needs to be supplied officially by SmartBear staff (which I am not). That patch will fix the Indicator.Hide/Show problem in the OP and, I believe, will take care of thise latest issue.
