Hi,

So I upgraded to version 3.0.1 and while the controlnet11s are all gone I still can't see as deeply into the win7 version. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

The weight rule list is reached by clicking the link at the bottom of the "overview" tab in the spy, the link reads "Edit Path Weights...".

I'm just guessing but I think the ClassName is the 'Class' identifier (which is Static for the text).

Looking at the snapshot, you could use either controlID or Instance to identify the text although you should probably restart the application several times and make sure that whichever you use remains constant. (Try starting it with more programs running or less and see if anything changes). I'm not...

Are there reasons why the Spy tool might not be able to see as deeply into an application on win7 as opposed to XP? I've tried using both versions of the spy tool and I get the same results with both. I don't mean the path is different between the two OS, the problem is that on win7 I can't get the ...

The only way to set that up that I know of is to use a while loop with two conditions. Something like: System.DateTime start_time = System.DateTime.Now; bool result = true; while ( result && System.DateTime.Now.Subtract( start_time ).Seconds < 10 ) { result = repo.folder.TryFindSingle(RxPath, out ra...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like you're trying to check "after ten seconds does this item still exist". The method you're using thinks more like "Does this item exist now and after ten seconds stop checking" If you want the first option I think you have to hard code in a delay or something...
