Hello,

I am currently evaluating this software. I really like it.

But I need some help to make some tasks:

1- I need to make a task that could run in another PC with a different screen resolution. So in order to make the mouse to click in the exact place can change from different PCs. What I need is to simulate a mouse left button click in the current place where I left the mouse cursor in the moment a run the task. Is it possible?

2- When I start the task there will be a video playing in my screen and I need to stop the task when the video stops playing. So, I think I need something to stop a task when there is no incoming sound playing for 1 minute. Or maybe something that recognize that the PC screen is not changing for some period of time, like a minute. Is it possible?

3- I need to simulate a number keystroke, but it should be from the left region of the keybord where it is located only the numbers, the numlock, etc. The keystroke will only be recognized if the key is that specific number key. When I recorded a task in pressed the key, the program only recognized that I pressed number 5, not the specific number 5 i pressed in the keybord.

Thanks very much!

Hello,

Regarding your queries,

1) To make task independent of screen resolution,

If you are working with web application (Internet Explorer) then you can use the 'Web Recorder' tool for web tasks, as Web Recorder is ideal for web recording. Web Recorder understands all web controls. If websites change and web controls move, Automation Anywhere will find the correct controls and the task will continue to work. You can use this tool to automate any web tasks like login to websites, search for items, submit forms, update records, automate ERP web front end, extract web data, testing an online application etc.

. If you are working with Windows application then you can use 'Manage Windows Control' command, found under 'Programs/Files/Windows' category. Using this command you can work with windows controls like textbox, drop-down, Check Box, Tree View, Command Button, List Box, Radio Button and Status Bar. You can get the status and set the status of checkbox or radio button, you can click on a command button and much more.

. In Addition, Enterprise version offers 'If Image Recognition' command (under Conditions/Loops command category) to find if an image exists within another image either from a file or capture the rectangular area in any window. It also provides a very powerful feature whereby it allows you to click on the image if it is found within the larger image.

2) You can use 'Wait for Screen Change' command to wait until the captured image of the screen changes. You can find this command under 'Pause/Delays/Wait' command category.

Let’s say that when you run a task, you want to wait for the contents of a portion of your screen or an area within your application to change before performing the next set of actions. In this case, you can mark the area using the capture button. When the task runs and it reaches this command, Automation Anywhere takes a screenshot of the area you marked, using the coordinates relative to the screen or window. Let's call the image “imageA.” Automation Anywhere waits the number of seconds you specified, then begins comparing the images on the page to imageA. It continues to compare the image in the marked rectangular section to imageA, and as soon as imageA and the current image differ, it stops comparing and proceeds to the next command. However, if the images never differ within the specified time, it either stops the task or proceeds to the next command.

3) The keystrokes recorded using 'Record' button would play exactly as recorded. It will also record the status of Num-lock. May we please know what do you refer to by 'specific number 5'?

Hope that helps.
