Hi all,

I’m using Studio Web Community and I want to change UI Framework from Default to AA, so that I can interact with Chrome’s print screen. But I can’t find where to configure it.
Is it possible?
If it’s not possible, how can I interact with Chrome’s print screen with Studio Web?

Looking forward to your help, thanks.

Hi @rkalijmann ,

You can not directly change the UI Framework. However, you can still interact with Chrome’s print screen by using the ‘Send Hotkey’ activities.

After opening the Chrome’s prinscreen window you can directly use type into activity to write ‘screenshot’ without any selector (the cursor already focus the textbox) Then you can use ‘Send Hotkey’ activity to send Arrow Keys and Enter keywords.

Hope this helps.
Regards.

Welcome to the community

Ideally you cannot do print and all using studio web as it runs on a serverless robot…can you please explain the use case?

Cheers

Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately ‘Send Hotkey’ activities are not working for me with the Chrome print page.
Any other suggestions?

Thank you very much.

Thank you. My use case is the following:
The web application I interact with prints a report which I want to print as a PDF and then store it on a Google Drive. I have no possibility to modify the web application.
My only problem is how to interact with the Chrome print page, the rest I know how to do.

Thank you very much for your suggestions.

Use the print click in wait for download and check

Ideally after click it would save automatically I believe

Wait for download will give the file output

Thanks, I understand your suggestion.
The problem is that I can’t interact with the Chrome print page, so I can’t click in the print button.

  1. In cross platform there is no print option when you run on server less
  2. so try to give the send hotkey ctrl+p to chrome and check if that downloads or saves directly

Mostly it might not …but better to try

cheers
