First use a click to expand the drop down before using the select item activity

I don’t have “find children”, do I have to install it separately?

Hi Tobias,

Yes because that is code from a different studio version.

Either way, try configure your select item like in the attached screenshot ;

Either way, try configure your select item like in the attached screenshot ;

I can’t select the element, I always get the error.

Without selecting it, I can only make a few settings

Hi @tobias_va Try using For Each UiElement.

*Expand the dropdown and map the elements

*In the For Each, Add an If statement to filter if CurrentElement.Selector.Text.Trim.ToUpper.Contains the category name

*In the Then path, use click and inject ‘CurrentElement’ generated by the for each. This will allow UiPath to work directly with the element without mapping the element on object repo or without adjusting descriptors

@Eric_Alvarado

if CurrentElement.Selector.Text.Trim.ToUpper.Contains

Unfortunately I can’t understand exactly what you mean, can you show me a screen of what you mean?

[Eric_Alvarado]

Hi @tobias_va; below an example, review the notes/display names added.

The boolean is jut in order to perform a validation in case there’re not options to choose; if it’s false then you can throw a B.E

Hi @tobias_va

Thanks

Thank you very much for your help. I was able to solve the problem.

The 24 version is causing problems for me, but the 23 version works without any problems.

But I have another question.

I read a cell from Excel with text and want to enter this text into this field.

How can I create line breaks in text from a cell? In Python or other languages ​​you can use \n, but that doesn’t work here.

It should look like this:

this is a test text,

after the coma I want two Enter

[Eric_Alvarado]

Can you try Environment.NewLine or vbLf?

[tobias_va (Tobias)]

I tried these 2 things but it doesn’t work

“this is a test text,”+Environment.NewLine+“after the coma I want two Enter”

after the coma,

I want two Enter

what do you mean by vbLf?

[tobias_va (Tobias)]

I’ve figured it out. I can format the text in Excel with line breaks and it’s adopted.

thank you very much for your help
