some questions regarding 1.5

First, is Ranorex Studio going to be the fourth product available thus yielding the free, pro, premium and studio products? Next, what exactly is 'Resource based GUI mapping'? Finally, is there any plan to support Python exceptions in the future? This would greatly increase the power and maintainabi...

Hi Wesley,
I am very interested in this solution as well.

I am curious, does this approach launch the app in a window or is it merely calling the code? I ask this because it would need to be in an instance of the GUI in order to register mouse clicks (at least as far as I understand it).

Ranorex WebSpy and pages that spawn new windows

Hello, There is a highly annoying site I have to deal with that when you visit, it spawns a new window and minimizes the original with a welcome splash page. Within WebSpy this means the window I am dealing with is external and not under control of WebSpy. I have tried putting in the direct URL of t...

no coordinates for Python either (and other languages)

I post process all my scripts to remove the coordinates and eliminate the mouse movement speed. The way I view it now, there are two modes I could use the recorded scripts as: 1. Demo/training - in which I want the mouse movement and adjustable speed (perhaps from a variable at the beginning of the ...

any plans for editing and debugging with the recorder?

Or put another way, any plans to make an IDE?
Scintilla is great and could be used for editing of source and it would also be great to edit actions and their attributes.

This and debugging ability are the big desires my management has for Ranorex.

Thanks for a great product and clean API.

now I am cooking with gas

I have implemented what you suggested and now I can search for element values (text) passed in by variable.

Thank you doubly, as this greatly increases the reuse of our scripts.

how can I select an item of a ListView by index and not name

I switched to using ListView methods and am able to successfully find the value I am comparing against. However, once I find that ListView item (with the subitem text I am searching for) then I am lost as how to select that entire item. The problem is that the 'itemname' as far as I can tell from th...

row has no indexed child elements

Note that this control is a listview (ListView32) as I discovered through the spy. I have the following code: col_count = Ranorex.ListViewGetColumnCount(parent) # now find the column index by comparing the text of each column to the # variable passed in for col_index in range(col_count): col_text = ...

searching a value by column name

Sorry for my long absence as I am just not getting back to test automation where I work. I will try to use the column_row regular expression to search for a value. What method would I perform this search in? For example, if I have a column named "Data ID" and I have my ID I wish to search for, how w...

ElementFindChildrenValue and ElementGetChildFieldItem

According to the documentaion, ElementGetChildFieldItem takes the index of the element as an argument. However, ElementGetChildrenValue returns not a list of indices but rather just the count of the number of elements matching that value. Isn't then the example for ElementGetChildrenValue incorrect?...

questions about DataGrid and finding elements

Is there a way to search the grid for a particular value (optionally submitting a column or row) and have the (column, row) coordinates returned? I just used ElementFindChildValue successfully with MouseClick to select the item. However, this only works if that element is onscreen. If you must scrol...
