Global wait time for Objects : Automation API

[jlowder]

Hello,

I'm developing all of my automation in Visual Studio and would like a means to increase the wait time for objects globally. I'm working with one particularly annoying dialog that varies in it's object load times and instead of adding a value at the end of every FindSingle, I'd like to add one "Global" value. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Jason

Hello,

You can use

Ranorex.Adapter.DefaultSearchTimeout = new Duration(yourDuration);

to set the default search timeout.
The timeout value set to this property is used for searching when implicitly casting a path (in its string representation) to an adapter variable like:

Button button = "pathToButton";

You can also use

Adapter.TimeoutFactor = 0.5;

to multiply all timeouts of find operations with the specific value.
