Cannot send input to UI element because it is outside of screen bounds

Bit of a peculiar issue here in that I’m trying to type text into a text box of a web page, but for some reason it’s not working correctly and I’m getting the error message:

“Cannot send input to UI element because it is outside of screen bounds”

Although this is web based, it is behind a password protected area - whether thats got somethign to do with it I’m unsure.

Any help is much appreciated :slight_smile:

Managed to resolve it - I had two variables of the same name. Deleting one solved the issue :slight_smile:

Copy the data from excel and paste it on web. For the 1st row it pasted the data correctly & for the second row it throws a error while pasting.

I too have the same issue. While using a drop down list, to pick an element which needs a scroll down and then click on the required element, I found a solution in another page in UiPath Forum. They suggest to use SimulateClick Activity. But i am not getting the same activity while searching in my UiPath. Kindly help, if you find any solution. I am stuck now.

@sar.mahanta this is probably late reply, but it is not separate activity - it is property of click activity.

For all other having same issue, but SimulateClick is not a solution (as click for this element cannot be simulated), you can try using Attach Window and then Click activity inside attach.
