Re: Menu and submenu mapped as same object; TC does not see submenu on a run
mattb it does not disappear when removing focus unless either there is a mouse click elsewhere or the mouse hover moves to another menu. I can "spy" the submenu with Object Spy, but it OS says that it is still application.TTBPopUpWindow, which is the same mapping of the main File menu. During recording and name mapping, it always maps those two menu trees the same way. During run, TC only sees the main File Menu, even after opening the submenu. I assume the disconnect is happening because TC is seeing two of the same object and therefore is only looking at the first one it encounters. I'll try the other suggestion you made and get back to you.Menu and submenu mapped as same object; TC does not see submenu on a run
When I recorded a script, TC mapped the "File" menu for my application as TTBPopUpWindow. I needed to access a sub-menu from the File menu, which TC also mapped as TTBPopUpWindow. Because of this, during the run, TC only sees the first menu, and when the sub-menu pops up, it doesn't see it at all. I'm not sure how to make these two separate mapped objects. I have seen another similar problem where the OP was told to use NameMapping's "Conditional mode", however, I cannot find this feature either in TC or in the TC support documentation. Another way I might be able to get around this is to use OCR to find the text I want to click on, however it is still expecting the first TTBPopUpWindow object here, as well - is there a way to have OCR look at the whole screen instead of a single object?
