Type into activity help

[J_Crosby]

Hi guys,
Help with the below question.
I have tried it with studio and I got option D as the output. However,on the properties I couldn’t locate ‘SimulateType’ so as to set it to ‘True’. Now my question is,would it make a difference in the output and if so, what’s the output with it checked? Secondly why are some of this properties options missing on my studio.
I am still very new into RPA.

Hi,

Secondly why are some of this properties options missing on my studio.

Because your project is set ModernDesigneExperience on and you can see only modern activities.

Can you try to turn on Classic at Filter in Activities panel?

Or turn off ModernDesignExpresence in ProhectSettings?

If you need to use Modern TypeInto (NTypeInto) activity, it’s same to set Simulate in InputMethod.

@Yoichi thank you.

“If you need to use Modern TypeInto (NTypeInto) activity, it’s same to set Simulate in InputMethod” - I was able to locate it using this. Thanks a lot.
The output didn’t change though. Would you be willing to go a step further and confirm this for me please?

Hi,

D is a collect answer. [k(enter] is hot key expression. it works as pressing enter key in HardwareEvent,SendWindowMessages except Simulate.
However, as Simulate doesn’t support hotkey, it’s typed as it is.

@J_Crosby

The output would be D itself

Properties are not missing but are different in modern and classic a little

cheers

@Yoichi thanks a lot for confirming. It’s very helpful when you compare output as it gives assurance you are moving in the right direction.
