How to find the elemnet from Visible Area of desktop?

[aravin]

Hi Team,

I want to find the elemnt from the visible area of the desktop! How to get the visible element alone?

Find the attachment below for better understanding.

Visible Area

Methods I followed,

1. Foreach

Code: Select all

				IList<Container> tocThumbList=repo.appName.toc.tocContainer.FindChildren<Container>();
				foreach(var tempThumb in tocThumbList)
				{
					if(tempThumb.Element.GetAttributeValueText("Caption")=="46-47" && tempThumb.Element.Visible)
					{
						tempThumb.Click();
						Report.Info("Element Found...");
					}
				}

2. For Each loop.

Same code with foreach loop.

------------------
Currently this code is getting all the thumbnails from the container, which are not visible in the desktop screen.

Is there any alternative solution to find and click the elemnt which are visible in this current screen. It should not find the hidden thumbnail.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

As I mentioned in your other post on this subject, to find if the element is outside the visible area of screen you will most probably have to calculate it from screen resolution (desktop size) and element position on desktop. If the element position is outside the screen resolution/desktop size, it's clearly in non-visible area of desktop

However, I think EnsureVisible() should do the trick and bring the element to visible area of screen.

Hi,

I am already using EnsureVisible(). It is not working.

Even after disabling the mouse option I mentioned in second post? In this case, your only chance is to get the thumbnail position and compare it with desktop area/screen resolution.

Hi Odklizec,

Thanks a lot.

Old Code

Code: Select all

if(tempThumb.Element.GetAttributeValueText("Caption")==thumbName )

New Code

Code: Select all

if(tempThumb.Element.GetAttributeValueText("Caption")==thumbName  && repo.browserScreen.Self.ScreenRectangle.Contains(tempThumb.Element.ScreenLocation)

This worked for me.

I have taken the browser screen rectangle size and verified that the thumb element position before clicking the element.
