Wait For Window

Post by eznoh »

I created a task to ssh into a remote system which succeeds in getting a login prompt but my "Wait For Window" action never completes even though the named window appears on the screen.Mike

Maybe you need check the window existence before waiting.
Also check the parameters of Wait For Window action.

Maybe it is simpler to insert some pause (2-3 seconds) instead of waiting of the window

The delay worked. Now how do I send a newline? I tried \n and %0Aput they both show up in the text as is. I'm using "Send Keystrokes" command.Mike

If you mean dialog form then {TAB} key selects of next input field and +({TAB}) (Shift-Tab) selects previous field.
This rule is valid for any dialogs and web forms.

In text editor use {Enter} key.

See some of standard combinations here.
