Handling for hidden element (pop-up)

Help

Hello all,

I’m having issues on how to handle a hidden pop-up. I have to interact with a pop-up when it appears on screen, however, Robot assumes it’s already interacting with the pop-up even when it’s still not loaded on screen.

I tried validating selector when the pop-up is not open and it still says in the studio that the element is valid, I think this is why the Robot thinks it has interacted with the pop-up even thought it’s still not loaded on screen.

I’m getting error as the robot tried to do the next steps, and the pop-up is blocking the main page robot needs to interact with.

Are there ways on how I can make robot wait for the pop-up to appear on screen?

Thanks!

Hi @jplisetsky

Use element exists before that use delay to check whether the pop up exist

Hello, thanks for the suggestion!

The element exists returns true even if the pop-up is not yet displayed on screen. I used the Get Attribute “Visible” to handle this.

Hi @jplisetsky

Use aastate instead of visible property
