Issues finding element using spy

[rsudhak]

For the Revit application, I am unable to find elements

getting the following error:
Failed to instrument WPF process. UI element identification capabilities for this window are limited.

Exception while setting-up managed injection endpoint: System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Thread was being aborted.
at Ranorex.Plugin.RemoteCommonControls.Ranorex.Plugin.ICommonControls.InjectManagedEndpoint(IntPtr targetWindow, InjectionFlags injectionFlags)
at Ranorex.Plugin.WpfFlavor.InjectWpf(IntPtr hwnd, Int32 pid)
Process: 'Revit' (pid 9052)

When using plugin : UIPreferred, spy doesnt find the element at all, when switched to WPFImprovedOnly , I get the above error


Thanks,
Rajee

Hi,

Have you tried to run Studio/Spy as administrator? This often helps with such kind of issue.

tried, but no luck at all, tried with all the plugins

I've got with Spy and Studio different Paths…
So I just use Studio.

Hi,

The reason why you are getting different xpaths from standalone Spy and Studio is, the they most probably use different settings? Try to export settings from Studio and import them in standalone Spy. Then you should get the same xpath from both standalone Spy and Studio.

To rsudhak and April7, if you are still experiencing such kind of issue, I would suggest to contact directly Ranorex support (via support form). I guess they will request a remote session with you, so they can analyze the problem in a realtime. There is not much anyone here can do in such situation, without seeing the app under test.

Thanks, Odklizec, will try to do that
