PB12 - How to work with combobox/dropdown/panel(combobox)

[escap89]

Hi,
I have read alot of sites but didnt found any solution 😕 how to solve these problems:

Problem number 1(attachemnts with "p1"):

I have a object ComboBox("rodzaj") that have properties like wItem,wItemCount,wSelectedItem but still its not posibble to select any item from the list. If i read wSelectedItem property it always giving "-1" in ouput even if i change selected item.

Refresh() not helps - looks like TC "remember" selected as default value.

ComboBox=ParentWindow.ComboBox("rodzaj")
ComboBox.Refresh()
Log.Message(ComboBox.wSelectedItem)#Always "-1"

 If i try:

    Log.Message(ComboBox.wItem(1))

I get that error:

TypeError 'IDispatchIndexedPropertyWrapper' object is not callable

Problem nr 2(attachemnts with "p2"):

In this case our "combobox" is a panel and I have no clue how to choose a specific value from it.

Problem nr 3(attachemnts with "p3"):

In this case we have to work with dropdown object, I have no clue how to choose a specific value from it.

Actually in every case I am using "down" keys but as we know its weak solution.

I already seen that: https://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/72444/

I would be very grateful for your help

Try recording a test where you select something out of the combo box and see what object you get.

[escap89]

Thanks for concern.

I started from recording

Recorder see rows inside as (x,y) - attached screen.

Below recorded test converted to script:

def Example():
Parent.ComboBox("rodzaj").Click(109, 4)
Parent1.Window("pbdwlb120", "", 1).Click(68, 34)

def Example():
Parent.ComboBox("rodzaj").Click(109, 4)
Parent1.Window("pbdwlb120", "", 1).Click(68, 34)

Above Selected Item in object spy there is Item with some params.  What's in there?

[escap89]

There is just "index"=0

PS.

ComboBox.wItem[2] returns name of  position with index 2, in my case "sprawy zakreślone" but how i can choose that?

Just read that:

Use case-sensitive parameters - Sets whether methods that simulate user actions (ClickItem, DblClickItem, SelectItem, etc.) will process their string parameters as case-sensitive. These methods belong to objects that correspond to various controls supported by TestComplete (for instance, Win32ListView).

But checking that option in properties didnt help.

[escap89]

Ehh somehow my reply gone 😕

That Item params is just index=0 (attachment)

Log.Message(ComboBox.wItem[2])   it returns name of position with index=2 correctly but still dont know how to choose that.

[Marsha_R]

Take that whole name that shows in ObjectSpy next to the Search window and ends in .wItem

add on to the end so it looks like

wItem(2).Click

I think that will do it.  

[escap89]

NameMapping.Sys.Process("wpius").Form("SAWA - Wydział Pracy i Ubezpieczeń dla I instancji V Wydział Pracy i Ubezpieczeń Społecznych, Wersja: 2.16.5.0 (MS SQL)").Panel("Workspace").MDIWindow("Repertorium P").Window("pbdw120", "", 12).ComboBox("rodzaj").wItem(2).Click

If i do that /\ im getting that error 😉 as it's written in first post

'IDispatchIndexedPropertyWrapper' object is not callable

Maybe developer did smth wrong with accessibility properties to that object?

[Marsha_R]

I looked up our combo box routine:

we look through the list of items in the box using the value of Items.Count until we find the one we want 

then we use that count = i for

comboobj.set_SelectedIndex(KeywordTests.ComboBox.Variables.i)

So you could try set_SelectedIndex = 2 for your object and see if that gets you the choice you want

[escap89]

Find indexx number by row name is at the moment no problem but if i find it and i try:

ComboBox=NameMapping.Sys.Process("wpius").Form("SAWA - Wydział Pracy i Ubezpieczeń dla I instancji V Wydział Pracy i Ubezpieczeń Społecznych, Wersja: 2.16.5.0 (MS SQL)").Panel("Workspace").MDIWindow("Repertorium P").Window("pbdw120", "", 12).ComboBox("rodzaj")
ComboBox.set_SelectedIndex(2)

I get that:

Unable to find the object set_SelectedIndex(2)
