On the selection screen of an application there is a Search field and Search button
Once the bot typed in a specific value from an excel file into the search field then click Search.. The search result/item is highlighted in blue.. I would like the bot to identify the highlighted item and check its associated checkbox.. anyone who has an idea how to? Thanks

As title says I am attempting to identify a new element that is added to a page after an add new button is clicked that shares an xpath the same as many other elements.
To give some background there is a list of items on the page. You can interact with the list in the following ways. Add New, Edit and Delete.
You can add a new row to the list. When you click add new you type in text to name the item in the list and then have the option to save or cancel.
The cancel element (new row) is the same as the delete element (existing row) in terms of xpath (except where it is on the list).
I can't use the specific list element because this is an automation script that would run everyday and the position on the list could change.
Any thought on what I could do to do identify the xpath of the new cancel button when add new is clicked.
The button itself does not contain words but is an image of a trashcan, so I can't use something like text to find a cancel button.
I saw some ways to add text to find by but the issue I'd run into is that a user could generate this new row at anytime.
Any thoughts would be helpful! :)
Thanks!
To identify the new cancel button, you can try and tweak (it's a wild guess) one the following XPath expressions :
If the trash is an image, we look for an element which child contains a #src attribute (the name of the image : trash.gif for example).
//*[./*[contains(#src,"trash.gif")]]
If the trash is an icon, we can search the same way as before (you need to identify the name of the icon) :
//*[./i[contains(#class,"trash")]]
Can anyone, please, help me with Libreoffice Base form creation?
I have the following tables:
And I'm trying to add a form to enter new RESOURCES record with the following fields: [RESOURCE_NAME], [CURRENCY_NAME] and [AMOUNT]. But after 10+ tries I have not succeeded. I have tried adding it via wizard, selecting RESOURCES as main form and CURRENCIES as subform and vice versa. I have tried VIEWS and forms based on them. These tries only gave to me or no possibility to enter new record, either creation of the new CURRENCY.
I don't need to create new currency via this form, I only want to enter new Resource (only enter once, not to modify, not to delete). Since I don't want to remember all the ID's I want to select currency name via DropDown list.
Can anyone provide instructions about how to do it, please?
Thanks.
You do not need a subform for this - just create your form document with RESOURCES as the main form (only form).
You will need a listbox to enter the currency item. A listbox has two fields, a display field and a field that is saved in the table. You will set it up to display CURRENCY_NAME and store CURRENCY_ID.
When you create a listbox, the wizard that pops up may get you what you want. If the wizard falls short:
Make sure the form document is open in design mode: on the "Form Controls" toolbar, the leftmost/topmost icon of a pencil with a triangle should be depressed. If this icon is grayed out, close your document, right-click on its name and choose "Edit".
Right-click on the listbox and choose "Control"; this will open the properties window
On the tab "Data" change the "Type of list contents" to "Sql"
In the field "List content" enter SELECT "CURRENCY_NAME", "CURRENCY_ID" FROM "CURRENCIES" ORDER BY "CURRENCY_NAME"
The Bound Field should default to 1. If it isn't 1, change it to 1.
Close the properties window and save your form. It should work as you want now.
If you want a listbox inside a tablegrid: after you create the table, with the form in edit mode, right-click on the column name you want to change and choose "Replace with" and then "listbox".
Edited to include comment by OP about bound field needing to be 1
IS this possible to have check boxes in crm 2015 page (not through web resource) , I tried to implement couples of solution with js but did not work out. Any comments would be useful.
You can add checkboxes by creating fields of type two options. Then, add them to an entity form and in the field properties window, change the format to "checkbox".
Check this out: https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/dynamics/crm-customer-center/create-or-edit-entity-fields.aspx
Possible data types for a field
Two options
After creating this field, configure it in the form to which it was added. In the form, select whether the field is displayed as option buttons (also known as radio buttons), a check box, or a list.
Cheers.
In the Dynamics CRM entity form editor:
Click New Field button on the extreme down-right corner
Provide Name to the field
Set data type as Two options
Save the record
Drag this newly added field into the form from the right side field list
Click Change Properties in the menu bar
In the pop-up click the Formatting tab
Select Two radio buttons / Check box / List in the Control formatting section
Click OK
I am using rich:select component in my xhtml page
My requirements are :
1) rich:select should be searchable.
2) But should show all elements in the list when clicking the down arrow, irrespective of the search string present.
For making component searchable, I set enableManualInput=true. But,when I search and select some value, and later click on the down arrow (the dropdown expand) it does not show all items in the Dropdown list, but shows only the item currently selected. What happens is, the value of the currently selected item is set as the search prefix.
I need to manually remove all characters on the search field and start searching again.
Is there a workaround for this? Where I want a dropdown of list and also should be able to search through the list. If this component does not support this functionality, is there another alternative component?
I use richfaces 4 and JSF 2.0
Thanks.
You can have the value deleted each time the list is shown (i.e. when you click the input field or the button):
<rich:select id="select" value="#{bean.selectValue}" enableManualInput="true"
onlistshow="#{rich:component('select')}.setValue('')">
It is a bug in RichFaces:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-11088
It is planned to be fixed in 4.5.0, meanwhile you can take a fix from the pull request:
https://github.com/richfaces4/components/commit/79657a54c90e99bfa1fb5f42eab8bf6f29fc9091
As declared in the title, for example, I want to search for a button whose name is button8, within a form where there are so many buttons that I do not want to check the name one by one.
Can I do this in VB6?
You should just be able to refer to the control via the controls collection, like so:
Me.Controls("Button8")
See this link.
Here's how to find a control in the form designer, if you know the name.
Go to the form designer, open the property window (press F4), and use the dropdown to choose the control. This shows the properties in the window (and you can edit them). It also selects the control onscreen.
