Hello guy2001,

Thank you for reaching out to us in regards to your element issue.

Are you able to provide an error message from your report where the test failed because of this element? I would need to review the error message before I can make a suggestion. A screenshot of the error is fine as long as all of the error message text is visible! It would also be awesome if you are able to provide a Ranorex snapshot of the element as well: https://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gu ... pshot.html

I hope this message finds you well!

Regards,

Jon

Hi guy2001,

Thank you for the reply.

That snapshot was very insightful but I'm still not quite sure what behavior you are seeing with that specific mouse action. Does the test fail to find the object? Does the test try to click but the application does not respond? Does the click miss the object entirely? It is usually best to share a copy of your report which has the exact behavior within the test run. If needed, you can learn how to share your report here.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

I hope this message finds you well!

Regards,

Jon
