My flash elements have disappeared in the snapshot
Posted: Thu May 10, 2012 4:40 pm
Hi all,
I have a flash app that I am automating. I have used the instrumentation wizard to configure that preloader, and mm.cfg and all else that it says in the documentation. I still get the limited Flash/Flex recognition pop-up, and I can't see any of the flash elements in the Studio. I just get a "Picture Graphic".
I then tried the Spy and as soon as I tracked a flash element I got the limited pop-up, but I was able to see all sorts of text and buttons in the container. My idea was that if I could get all the path names I could just use those directly in code to validate things, and press buttons, etc. So I took a snapshot of the flash app, thinking that when I went back to look at it, all the elements that were visible in the Spy would be visible in the snapshot.
No such luck. None of those extra text and buttons were there anymore, it was back to just the "Picture Graphic". I don't understand. Why would they disappear? The Spy was recognizing them. I even had the Spy window present in the screenshot included with one of the snapshots, and you can see all the elements present in that window.
Thanks for any help.
