Hello! I’m having an issue with the new UI for the properties of Get Text. I’m using computer vision for my selectors and need to adjust the anchor to search for text from a variable. Normally I would do this by adjusting the “Input > Target > CV Text” option in the properties window, however this is no longer an option. How do I use a variable in my selector now?
Hi, @robert5
To use a variable for anchor or target in the new UiPath Computer Vision activities assign your dynamic value to the Descriptor property (not CV Text) as a CvDescriptor variable, updating its text via string manipulation before using it
Welcome to the community
Click on the activity to get the edit target option and it eould open the element or from object repo
Then you can add or edit the discriptor as needed
The properties are removed from properties panel
Cheers
Thank you, I was able to figure it out now. I tried doing this initially with the Edit Descriptor new experience window, but my variable wasn’t showing up in the variables dropdown, so I assumed it was broken for being in preview. When logging back in today after the weekend, the variable is in the list now, so I guess it was just a minor bug that required a Studio restart. It seems to be working now. Thank you!
Here is what I did for future reference:
