Hi I am working on legacy application automation which is desktop C++ application gdc.exe (Civica Authority) system launched from web interface. Before this version and at some previous version I was using Table extract feature which was working fine as it used to identify table shown using C++ GUI code with Scrollable table option which somehow they removed in newer version but I kept on using old version view to make it work but now in new version that scrollable feature is missing at all even if you turn of new features. Also, in new version due to no scrollable feature it fails to read entire table as data in scrollable manner as well as it keeps on complaining on some issue that strict selector not selected whereas it chooses CVision on its own. If you choose strict selector then it can’t read table so not sure how they test their product and who suggests them to drop some very good features. It seems legacy application related testing is not done at all. It was a nightmare even to go to previous versions as it’s kept on complaining OCR engine missing for same file and I had to delete the file import from backup (thank god I had). But it seems Table extraction was good earlier but with each version they are goofing up and making existing applications left high and dry. Every

time I think to propose this as official tool every time new version delays it as I lose confidence on it. Not sure how they drop and select features as scrollable was a good feature and seems bug is there. Attached are screenshots
