Hi,
For combo box without moving the mouse is it possible to select a value. Could you please help me on this.
Thank you very much for your support.

Hi,
Could you please explain in more details what exactly you want to achieve? Also, please answer the following questions:
What kind of technology is your AUT (desktop, mobile, web,...)?
What is your Ranorex version?
Please post a sample application/html page and Ranorex snapshot of the combobox in question.

Hi,
I'm afraid, there is still not enough info. Please post at least a Ranorex snapshot of the problematic element. An example app would be even better. Also, I don't understand why do you want to select a combo box item without moving the mouse? Because this is completely against "do-it-like-real-user" philosophy. What exactly do you want to achieve (post use case or test scenario)?

Pavel,
This may be the old "drop-down in a browser" issue. Each browser presents the drop-down differently, so using a mouse action may not be the best way to handle it because there is usually no element that Ranorex can actually find.
Shortcuts usually aren't...
