Hi, In Edge browser when I click on an UI element, it brings up a menu. I need to click on one item in the menu. I am able to capture the element by pressing F2. But by the time UiPath clicks on that menu item, the menu quickly disappearing leaving me with an error “UI Element not found”. Can you please help? Thank you, ---

@A_Learner, Use Hover Activity or when using click use hover. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/uipath/original/4X/3/5/d/35d9e90c6a87ce462727356848b14bcba61d045d.png) > [@Not able to click on hoverable element](https://forum.uipath.com/t/not-able-to-click-on-hoverable-element/561971/2): > > Hi @nmjvk Use Hover Activity or when using click use hover [image] Thanks, Ashok 🙂 ---

Their question isn’t about running it, it’s about indicating the element. It disappears before the indicate can complete. ---

@postwick So that’s why i have asked him to give some delay because the bot might be trying the second click before the menu has been opened. Regards ---

How would a delay solve that it’s not clicking it before it disappears? A delay would make the problem worse. ---
