Is there a correct way to do this?

“Retry mechanisms” to handle situations where the object’s visibility might take some time to update. You can use a “Try-Catch” activity or “Retry Scope” activity to repeat the process of waiting and clicking until the object is successfully detected.

or

“Use ‘Element Exists’ activity in UiPath to check if the object is visible on the screen before clicking it. Set a suitable timeout to wait for the object to appear, ensuring a successful click.”

First try using a hover activity and then use click on close

Hi @mironb

Use the click activity to click on the X button. When you are indicating the element Press F6 then indicate the element.

This Function F6 enables the hoverable selection.

Check the below image for your reference:

Hope it helps!!

I have tried this solution but the selector finds many more of this X on the screen
I can’t find 1 selector that fit to this field (there are some groups names in this field).

@mironb

If Your clicking element is a dropdown use select item activity and pass the input

@rlgandu
Its not dropdown - See in the first image I added please
Its a regular field with a group name in it (Large text) and in the end of it only when mouse over the X showed.

@mironb

Check the html content in the selector like aaname, Innertext of the uielement

Okay @mironb

When indicating the X element check the strict selector and uncheck the fuzzy selector and image.

Better to give the anchor for the target, the anchor element should be very unique which is closer to the X element.

Hope you understand!!

@rlgandu
Thanks
I put selector with class identify using inspect and its works well
I didn’t know that with UiPath I can add any properties using HTML
Its very useful for me now
