Need C# Cod to click the Submenu of Window based Application

[kumarm100]

Hi,
Am trying to automate the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010. I have a problem in invoking GP, can any one provide me C# code for selecting the submenu of a menubar
Am able to select till "File" Menu item, Ranorex not recognizing the Context Menu object.
Please suggest me how to select the context menu "Open Launch File... Ctrl + o" of "File" Menu Item.
Almost my issue resembles the same as Calculator (Menus -> Menubar -> Menuitems -> ContextMenu)
In My case

"Application" is the Main Menu Bar

/form[@title='Dexterity Runtime']/menubar[@accessiblename='Application']

"File" is the Menuitem of Application

/form[@title='Dexterity Runtime']/menubar[@accessiblename='Application']/menuitem[@accessiblename='File']

"Open Launch File... Ctrl + 0" is the Submenu of File

//contextmenu[@processname='Dynamics']/contextmenu/menuitem[@accessiblename~'^Open\ Launch\ File\.\.\.Ctrl\+']

Please let me know the c# code using (Ranorex) ASAP

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Here is an example for Windowx XP calculator to select a context menu item.

//Open context menu
Ranorex.MenuItem editMenu = Host.Local.FindSingle("/form[@title='Calculator']/menubar[@accessiblename='Application']/menuitem[@accessiblename='Edit']");                 
editMenu.Click();                                  
//Select your context menu item
Ranorex.MenuItem contextItem = Host.Local.FindSingle("/contextmenu[@processname='calc']/contextmenu/menuitem[@accessiblename='PasteCtrl+V']");                 
contextItem.Select();

You can also use the code generated by the Ranorex Recorder. Just record the actions and let the Recorder generate the code for you, see the corresponding section in the Ranorex User Guide:

Hi,

Now am able to get the values of submenus using
Ranorex.Menuitem Filemenu = Host.Local.FindSingle("/form[@title='Dexterity Runtime']/menubar[@accessiblename='Application']/menuitem[@accessiblename='File']");
IList <Ranorex.unknown> uk = Filemenu.Children;

but not able to click the submenu and on execution it clicks the top most browser window.
Any one know how to set focus the submenu and click the respective item.

Thanks in advance

but not able to click the submenu and on execution it clicks the top most browser window.

Ranorex can only click on menu items when the menu is open, otherwise it can't calculate the screen location of the menu items. Consequently, you have to click the "File" menu item first to open the menu.

Filemenu.Click();

I suggest you read through the Ranorex Tutorial; it answers most of the questions that new Ranorex users have.
