Thanks Alex. When I try the way you suggested, I get this error:

Hi,

 

> I think that Qt objects cannot use WaitAliasChild method ?

.WaitAliasChild() method exists only for the objects that are NameMapped. As the thirdChild object is not NameMapped but is just a child of the Settings object that is NameMapped, you should use .WaitAliasChild() method to wait for the Namemapped object and .WaitQtObject to wait for the regular Qt child. Like it was in my example.
