While using an anchor base to find the text position of a string and click the check box next to it, it takes 30-45 seconds to click the checkbox. I have tried different waitforready properties, different click properties, check activity, anchor base position, etc. all with the same issue.
I tried restarting the UiPath and the application I use but the outcome is the same.
Uipath Studio Version 2020.4.1 (Enterprise Version)

If itâs the website form and have proper classes defined I think there will be still way to make it without an anchor. But itâs hard to prove it as I donât have a way to see it.
@BALASUBRAMANIAN⌠Give it a try by inspecting element on your browser⌠If you find any unique property for that Check box add that to your selector⌠else try with check activity or try with Click text activityâŚ
Hmm⌠yes usually idx will be the unique oneâŚ
Usually, we have to avoid adding up âidxâ to our selector XML fragment. But here that makes the object unique. What element is highlighting if you replace idx value with * (wildcard)?
Another one, If you press enter after typing will it select the box? If yes you can go with type into + keystrokes.
Exactly like @ManiPrajwal_K said. You can check more inside inspect element but what most important you can check this selector using UI Browser in Studio and then you have possibility to build selector based on any additional element from previous divs, uls or anything else.
You wonât want to use IDX in your situation, cause of how they dropdown and how the placement is dynamic.
I suggest looking for a ânameâ or âtextâ or âinnertextâ attribute. You might need to manually type it in, though. Need to see everything you have available though to make a better suggestion.
By the way, I want to click on the third one âReturn Order Not Received- Donât Expect Physical Deliveryâ
According to user input, Every time the check box position will change.
ex : in next time it will come to the fifth position bot have to click on the fifth check box
Can you paste the UiExplorer window snap by doing this so that we can helpâŚ
open UiExplorer and use Indicate on Element and Click on Check box first and use Indicate Anchor and click on the Return Order Not Received- Donât Expect Physical Delivery
