Testcomplete is unable to recognize objects for hwndsource

[apurvak]

Hi,

I am converting VB scripts to JavaScripts. While converting the scripts I am facing issue with recognizing objects with hwndsource popup menu. Below is the code:

Sys.Process("TestStandDesigner").WPFObject("HwndSource: PopupRoot", "").WPFObject("PopupRoot", "", 1).WPFObject("Decorator", "", 1).WPFObject("NonLogicalAdornerDecorator", "", 1).WPFObject("ContextMenu", "", 1)

The application designed with special framework. if the application is developed as normal VS WPF application

then the objects are reconized correctly.

On ClickR() action the context menu is generated but its cannot be mapped with normal PopupMenu method or toolwindow.  While recording script testcomplete giving one popupRoot but it cannot be mapped again.

Error Message: No traces of popupRoot in Object browser

following the code when I recorded the script

  let xamDataTreeNodeControl = Aliases.TestStandDesigner.HwndSource_ShellView.ShellView.DockTGP.XamTabControl.GrdTreeView.AutomatTree.XamDataTreeNodeControl7;
  xamDataTreeNodeControl.ClickR(183, 11);
  xamDataTreeNodeControl.StackPanel.PopupMenu.Click("Edit Automat");

but Its not usable for next time.

I am also attaching the screenshot please check.

I there any way of mapping the popup menu ?

Can anyone please let me know what is the solution for above problem?

Note sure without more information, but it sounds like a property was not copied over correctly for identifying your object or maybe a timing issue. We need more information. What does the object look like in the object browser?

Also, you should really be using name mapping or find methods. Full object paths like this are very failure prone.

.Net applications must be accessible to TestComplete. My guess is that the problem is because of how this 'special framework' was implemented by your developers.
