EnsureVisible does not working

[John Silver, Esq.]

Hello,

I use the following code to wait for appearing of the titlebar of the tested app:

Code: Select all

            	bool isShown=false;
            	for (int i=0;i<100;i++)
            		try
            		{
	            		if (repo.FormApp.TitleBarApp.EnsureVisible())
		            	{
		            		isShown=true;
		            		break;
		            	}
            		}
            		catch (ElementNotFoundException)
            		{
            			Delay.Milliseconds(1000);
            		}
            		catch(Exception e)
            		{
        				Report.Log(ReportLevel.Info, "myapp", "Error: "+e.Message, new RecordItemIndex(2));
						break;
            		}

The problem is that the repo.FormApp.TitleBarApp.EnsureVisible() always raises the ElementNotFoundException, even the titlebar is already shown.
When I set breakpoint on this line (at this moment I'm sure that titlebar IS visible), I call "HighlightRepositoryItem" from the context menu, and the titlebar becomes highlight. But the repo.FormApp.TitleBarApp.EnsureVisible() still raises the mentioned exception.

OS: Win7 x64, Ranorex Studio v. 3.0.0.11639, repo.FormApp.UseCache is false.

What I'm doing wrong?

Thank You in advance.

Hi,

Instead of using your code to wait for an element, use the Ranorex methods to wait for an element. We have a nice feature called timeout which handle this for you. The following documentation explaines how to wait for an element
